Summary
A YouGov poll found that 46% of Danes view the US as a major threat, surpassing concerns about North Korea and Iran but trailing Russia (86%).
Additionally, 78% oppose selling Greenland to the US, though 72% believe Greenland should decide its own fate.
The poll follows heightened tensions over Trump’s repeated claims that acquiring Greenland is an “absolute necessity” for US economic security.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has sought European unity in response, warning of shifting relations with the US.
As an American, I agree, who the fuck cares of that orange turd wants it. He’s a monster
What is the real reason trump wants Greenland?
Rare earth minerals, exclusive arctic economic zone… and a theoretically easy territorial expansion to ensure his unconstitutional reelection.
Also, prime real-estate for when the ice caps melt.
Also he is stupid. That’s probably an important reason.
That’s always important to keep in mind!
As an Icelander, I just know if Trump gets Greenland he won’t stop there. He’ll try to take Iceland too. I’m scared.
Mostly as a distraction while he pillages the government coffers and sells off foreign interests to Russia and China.
An excuse to access the war purse strings.
I feel he saw how big it was on a typical map and thought “I can double the size of America. All we have to do is kick out these no-name unimportant suckers who happen to be there”
- sincerely, every imperialist nation to ever exist.
They are correct.
Except it’s nearly half, meaning the majority do not see the U.S. as a threat.
And they should, because it is. To the world.
You should work on your math, because 78% is not nearly half.

That is less than half.
Calm everyone. Trump does not want Greenland, never did. He also doesn’t care about the gulf of Mexico or Panama cannel.
It’s just a distraction and negative media overload method that he uses. And you know what, it works. Here we are talking about this and not the serious things.

Doesn’t matter if it’s a distraction or not. If Trump takes Greenland it will break NATO completely, and when Trump threatens to take Greenland, it weakens NATO and that can lead to all sorts of problems … just not necessarily for the US.
