how do you get this at all from TFA?

"In meetings, at dinners and in passing conversations, Mr. Trump has asked advisers whether the U.S. can acquire Greenland"

"It is also unclear how the U.S. would go about acquiring Greenland even if the effort were serious. "

"It unleashed a cascade of questions among his advisers, such as whether the U.S. could use Greenland to establish a stronger military presence in the Arctic, and what kind of research opportunities it might present."

etc etc.

No, it doesn't sound like that
