Are you though?
“Ok Trump how about this. We will let you build a few more military bases that are no different than the ones already there.”
Trump “deal. For that I’m going to back off in taking Greenland.”

He’s just going to be building more bases and infrastructure to support them. Now the economy becomes dependent on the USA. Now you’re fucked.

Yes and the US was already building bases and infrastructure to support them. And as for economic dependency…
While the US is eyeing the island for its rare earth minerals upon closer examination it’s not exactly THAT valuable regardless who is owning the mines and revenue. Like Greenland could put together a whole common ownership with revenue staying with the people of Greenland and still the outcome isn’t “we are now wealthy.”

Yes, because now you’re emboldening him. Instead of getting full pushback from him acting like a toddler, they are making him feel like he won.
Tell me what happens when you make someone feel like they won something by acting like a toddler? They certainly won’t stop acting like one, let me tell you that.

Yes such a victory by…not at all winning any of the things you were demanding.

You seem to be ignoring my points and repeating the same arguments that I’ve already addressed. Not a big surprise you think this is going to stop Trump when you act like you can’t read.
