President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would not use force to acquire Greenland, the first time he has ruled out using military action to acquire the territory.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Trump lamented that the United States “probably won't get anything unless I decide to use excessive strength and force, where we would be, frankly, unstoppable.”
“But I won't do that,” he added. “That's probably the biggest statement I made, because people thought I would use force. I don't have to use force. I don't want to use force. I won't use force.”

Hopefully he is also not serious about Canada.
Actually...
What Trump has very successfully done is leverage the axiomatic observation that npredictable strongmen spook predictable bureaucrats/bankers/career politicians.
Trump could’ve got to ABC simply by talking to Denmark as a pal - but nothing would’ve changed in EU NATO.
Even if the last week of bombast results in Trump walking back to the same ABC and Europe cooling its one or two jets, the message it sends out to EU-NATO (especially after Venezuela) is, “seriously - don’t screw with THIS President.”
I suspect what comes next is what could’ve happened anyway - Trump invokes the clause from the ‘51 agreement to renegotiate/extend the scope of US in Denmark, and gets what he would’ve got anyway, but the rest of EU-NATO decides to reduce their dependency on the USA - the US reduces its bases across Europe, and redirects resources from France and Germany to Greenland.
But instead of Trump coming out of the process looking like a stable statesman, he comes out looking like a hair-triggered strongman.
You’re a liar. Prove he made an overt threat of war, show a source or be damned. You lie.
‘Overt’ doing all the work in that post.
Buahahahaha.....oh to see the video footage now in the hands of the FBI.
Denmark is our fren’ !
Boo hoo.
Agreed.
I accept your surrender.
You’d be infinitely better off saying nothing
Wasn’t going to because the initial response was immature, but you took it to an ever more infantile.
Did Trump say I will bomb you of you don’t surrender Greenland?
No, but the implication was obvious.
I won’t be so childish a to say you’d be better off saying nothing, like you.
Comment all you want you arrogant misanthrope.
