    Smart move on Denmark because Trump is so stupid he will actually believe that he is in control of Greenland while Denmark probably got some sweet deal. It’s literally been NATO protected for decades and hasn’t changed even after this.

    I’m certain the Danes did what they thought was best and it seems the “deal” is a nothing burger anyway, but don’t fool yourselves : placating the bully is a mistake and won’t even work. The moment he feels like it, he’ll renege. US signatures are written in pencil.
