The people of Greenland don’t want to become part of Canada.

What needs to happen is Canada and all the other NATO countries, with Greenland’s permission of course, need to send several thousand troops to Greenland, along with airplanes and ships and a nuclear-armed submarine.

That should shut down Trump’s fantasy quickly.
