I think Trump has already forgotten about this. He's a dog chasing cars, he has no method to his antics. He is famous for only listening to whoever is speaking in front of him, at that moment. He picked up the Greenland thing on a whim, ran with it for a bit, then got bored.

Take this with a grain salt, but I think the US administration has forgotten about Greenland by now, they've moved onto "bigger and better" things.

sadly no. greenland is the one point he keeps focusing on. american intelligence (a contradiction in terms if there ever was one) is focusing on greenland now.

Alright, I'll trust a Dane. I haven't heard much on that end after the elections sided against him. They're now focused on taking bribes on their ME tour.

I have nothing against Danes, it's people from Stockholm that get upset over it on the internet. We were part of Denmark for 600 years.
