" If the U. S. were to take Greenland by force, how would that be different than Russia's annexation of Crimea?

Trump's cabinet is as stupid as he is.
And of course, Bessent did NOT answer the question.

Welker: " If the United States were to take Greenland by force, how would that be different than Russia's annexation of Crimea?"

Bessent: "I believe that the Europeans will understand that this is best for Greenland, best for Europe, and best for the United States."

Whatever Trump wants, they'll help him get, and justify it as being a good thing for Greenland...for Cuba...for Canada...for Mexico...for Venezuela, and so on.
It would be nice if they actually let the people of those nations decide for themselves, but then he's planning to take away our ability to choose what we think is best for us, so it's actually just an extension of his perversion.

The really perverse part is how many people in the United States are willing to let him do it.
