20. Because of NATO's Article 5, neither Russia nor China will even attempt

"to take it"

They know Denmark is a signatory in the NATO alliance and would immediately invoke Article 5 so all of NATO would have to defend it.

That stupid argument is just another gaslight from the dangerous conman pedophile who knows nothing (a fucking moron, as Tillerson said), but nobody in the press seems to know that Article 5 thingie too.

So he's going to send troops he called "suckers and losers" earlier in harms way for a territory neither Russia nor China will even just TRY "to take it" ever?
