It's absolutely terrifying what's happening right now. Taking over Venezuela, buying Greenland, NATO getting involved. People can't afford their health insurance, their rent or groceries, but yeah, let's go ahead a buy f*cking Greenland!!
The idea of the US taking Greenland by force is so absurd and so dangerous, and so unpopular including with practically all Trump European allies, that I find it hard to believe it will happen. I hope I’m not wrong.
Even if Denmark were to agree to sell Greenland at this point, it will be under the threat of force, and therefore not a legitimate transaction by any stretch of the imagination.
If the US were to take over Greenland, would it be allowed to continue as a self-governing territory with an elected legislature? (Extraordinarily unlikely.) Would it have voting representation in the U.S. Congress like it does in the Danish parliament? (Absolutely not.)
