Here's my theory about Trump's focus on Greenland [View all]
As an acolyte and lap dog of Putin, Trump has designated Greenland as a soft target. It has a sparse population and it’s isolated in the North Atlantic Ocean relatively close to the U.S. Politically, militarily and economically, Greenland, by itself, cannot repel a determined attack by Trump.
Greenland and Denmark are members of NATO whose charter, among other important declarations, states that any attack on a NATO member nation is an attack on all NATO nations. It has been a bedrock of maintaining peace in Europe since World War II.
If Trump were to attack Greenland, whether by force or otherwise, it would constitute an attack on all NATO members. Whether or not the European allies would respond militarily is not the point.
The point is that any such action by the U.S. against Greenland would effectively dissolve NATO which has been Putin’s desire all along. Consider that Putin is terrified of Ukraine becoming a member of NATO.
As the expression so accurately states, Everything Trump Touches Dies.
