Is there an actual fear that the US will seize Greenland by force? There are much more desirable properties we probably could have nabbed since 1945 and did not.

It seems like a blatant threat to me, although I cannot make any logical sense of the logic of the sentence. I am curious who wrote it (big words and good grammar rule out Trump) and why.

... because a violently hegemonic nuclear superpower run by Donald Trump and Elon Musk can be trusted to act rationally on the world stage?
