and he's just using all the commotion as a smokescreen for the withholding of the Epstein files. I almost always agree with O'Donnell but this time I think he's dead wrong. Greenland is a big deal, even an obsession for Trump, like the Nobel Peace Prize which he's still has such a big mad about not getting (even though he extorted Machado's medal and gave her nothing in return) that he's tariffing all the countries who have sent troops to Greenland to defend it, especially Norway, whose government has nothing to do with the NPP. He has a huge hard-on for getting Greenland, Epstein files notwithstanding, and destroying NATO in the process is BFF Putin's wet dream. This is serious. The Epstein files must be released, obviously, but Greenland isn't just a diversion.
