Americans aren’t doing anything about it. Just sitting there taking it. If you’re not doing anything to fight Trump then as far as I’m concerned you’re part of the problem.

Put NATO forces there so the US would invoke the mutual defense clause.
There are already NATO forces there. Specifically Denmark and USA
Well the US forces are the issue, right? Denmark has neglected Greenland militarily for years. Under the NATO treaty they don't HAVE to respond to an attack on a member so if there were forces from other members there it would greatly increase the likelihood of a joint response.
US Sends Troops to Greenland to Defend it From US Troops
Or see how fast they withdraw from NATO and form a new alliance.
According to Article 13 of the 1949 NATO treaty, members can declare their withdrawal, but the document does not provide for a member to be expelled. The only measure the treaty provides to sanction serious violations of the alliance's principles is a joint decision by the other member states to restrict or suspend cooperation.
The US military is such an essential part of NATO that if they don't withdraw, a new alliance should definitely be made.
Trump sounds more like Putin every hour.
Why is he so obsessed with Greenland?
Mineral resources, especially since the ice is melting. They don't believe in global warming but they accept that the ice cap is melting. Then there are fishing rights around it. Finally it would control a chunk of the arctic ocean at a time when the north ice cap is melting.
They believe in global warming. They just say they don’t because they’re lying psychopaths who would kill millions for their own gain.
Shipping routes will be there in the not-so-far future when the ice is gone.
Easy target from his perspective. Would draw Nato resources away from Ukraine, so his boss would be pleased.
When Trump does something incomprehensibly useless from an American perspective, always ask "What's in it for Putin?" and you may find you get answers.
Theres a few reasons but it would be a huge military advantage, not that I agree with it
Natural resources perhaps?
He probably thinks it's actually green.
Cause Peter Thiel (billionaire) wants to build a billionaire's bunker there for the apocalypse.
Damn right. Cause the US would deputize 40 million insurgents both in and out of Canada if they ever tried.
It would be a very stupid and long battle for nothing
We’d take so many with us. And we’d go full scorched Earth.
I consider the US our enemy. Even if we come to an agreement at this point, it's the duty of every Canadian to backstab the US when such an opportunity arises. There can no longer be peaceful co-existence unless the US is split apart. Every Canadian employed by an american employer should start stealing IP and sabotaging operations. This is just the beginning.
Only if that kid was a better shot.
I look forward to his funeral
The Margaret Thatcher of the US.
It’s a little different:
Thatcher fucked the kids.
Donald Trump fucks kids.
Maggie the milk snatcher vs. Donnie the Diddler.
I could start WWIII, I can see that happening
Don't you love trump?
