If you hate trump, and most on this board do (I understand why), it’s easy to dismiss his assertion that the US must have Greenland because it’s vital to our national security as bombastic rants and bullying. His (and more so his bitch miller’s chest puffing bully talk) inability to articulate his points and policy in an unoffensive manner obscures any chance of consideration from most who oppose him because he revels in being an asshole and seems to take it to new heights over every issue. That’s trump. But that doesn’t make his claim about Greenland being vital to our national security wrong. To disagree out of hate is naive and juvenile. This is a pretty good article and does a good job of laying out the issues in play and the obstacles that must be overcome in some manner to secure a part of our national security. I don’t expect some posters to have any meaningful comments or good faith dialogue but I’m hopeful some will offer their views outside of their personal dislike for trump. Do you view it as vital for national security? Do you see china’s inroads as a concern? Etc.

The point is not "hating" this guy. The key points (I think) are:
1. This guy is completely dishonest. Historically so. It would be insane to believe anything he says.
2. I imagine that history will judge that he has being even more corrupt than we now believe. It is reasonable to believe that this adventure in Greenland is intended to earn Trump and his family corrupt money.
3. He has surrounded himself with dishonest, incompetent, people. I do not think that there exists a single cabinet officer or advisor who has the intelligence or integrity to tell him he is wrong
4.Certainly he has done terrible harm to our role in global affairs. He will be gone fairly soon, but the damage he has done is huge.
In sum, we should not trust these people to do anything good and ethical, or even legal.
