The whole argument that the US needs to take Greenland to keep Russia or China from taking it is stupid in a world where NATO exists. Russia and China can't take Greenland without going to war with the US and Europe. If the US takes Greenland then all that's stopping Russia or China from taking it from the US is going to war with the US.
I hate how much trump lies about everything, but I REALLY hate how stupid he thinks everyone is. And I ESPECIALLY hate how he's right about how stupid most people are.
