Trump's attempts to steal Greenland for another grift are the result of zero understanding of the realities of getting the rare earths out of the ground. He's not a very clever man.

Trump's Greenland ambitions would screw America for generations. Any invasion would be a minerals grab not to defend against China or Russia - if he wanted to thwart Putin he could help Ukraine obliterate him. MAGA is a lesson in childish politics.
