YOU are an IDIOT !  For the following reasons:

1) The USA having a few bases somewhere, and having the authority and responsibility to step in and STOP bad actor like Russia or China moving into Greenland, setting up their own bases, and taking over... are TWO COMPLETELY different things !

2)  The USA does NOT currently have the freedom to mine anything in Greenland... they have a few military bases... and that's ALL !

3)  IF the USA needed the Rare earth elements under the Greenland ice, they could CERTAINLY mine it...  Humans have been deep mining materials under ROCK for years... YOU saying that a few hundred feet of ICE would stop us, is RIDICULOUS !

4)  Neither NATO nor Denmark have the capability to fully secure Greenland from the Russians or Chinese trying to take over... the USA DOES !

5)  HOWEVER, ALL of that aside... America needs Greenland to build early warning and missile bases there, to be part of Trumps Golden Dome, and to keep America safe should Russia or China EVER try to launch Nucear missiles aginst us..

SO, I REPEAT... YOU are an IDIOT ! 

the idiot is thou,  trump risked  ww3 to get what we had along. he gained nothing. nada. zilch.

---------------------------------------------Under existing agreements with Denmark, the US has the power to bring as many troops as it wants to Greenland.  It already has more than 100 military personnel permanently stationed at its Pituffik base in the north-western tip of the territory.But during his speech, Trump suggested he would not be receptive to any agreements on the US use of Greenland that fall short of full ownership."Psychologically, who the hell wants to defend a license agreement or a lease?" he said."[Greenland] is a large piece of ice in the middle of the ocean, where if there is a war, much of the action will take place on that piece of ice.
