"And the problem is there's not a thing that Denmark can do about it if Russia or China wants to occupy Greenland, but there's everything we can do. You found that out last week with Venezuela."

I understand that none of this has anything to do with national security or defending Greenland from China or Russia...but JFC, how stupid is this idiot?

Greenland belongs to Denmark. Denmark is a NATO nation. Therefore, anyone attacking Greenland, is technically attacking Danish territory. Under Article 5 of the NATO treaty, all NATO members would be expected to defend Greenland if it were attacked by either China or Russia.

Like I said, I get that none of this has to do with defense...but how stupid do you have to be, to think this is a believable excuse for taking Greenland? Either he's a fucking idiot...or he think a everyone else is a fucking idiot...which also means he's a fucking idiot.

He’s destroying NATO under the guise of Making NATO Great Again. Same with America

Because he's a petulant man child who not only does he not think two moves ahead, he doesn't even think about the current move. You could go all the way back into human pre-history and struggle to find a more useless person.

He really cannot understand the concept of "No"

It will be tragically hilarious when they turn on Marco Rubio, calling him a vile immigrant, and he finally understands the kind of monster he created.
