#2 We need Greenland for national security and international security - so I think we'll go as far as we have to go

So since Putin looks to be getting away with invading another country, Trump is going to give it a shot?

Assuming you're not stupid enough to actually use military force, a word of warning, Mr. President: The Obnoxious New Yorker Persona has a lot of drawbacks.

#5 I appreciate the Daily Mail going to the trouble of laying it all out for us in such nice detail. But I wonder:
Is GCHQ is trying to get back at Trump for not playing along in Ukraine?

I can't help notice one of the tells for when the DM is trying to sell something:
Person X has refused to rule out doing crazy stuff.

Of course Trump has refused to rule out invading Greenland, since that would shut down the conversation. The story stays in the news only if it is about the impending destruction of the current World Order. The Greenland independence movement is just not sexy.

Trump's super power is making deals, not playing armchair general. Although, it is interesting to imagine the New York real estate market with armies and warlords.

A pity we don't have a Rantburg Futures Market for predictions. I would go all in on "Trump doesn't invade Greenland".
