I think Greenland will end up either being an unincorporated territory of USA or entering into a compact of free association with the US. Whether or not it'll be the end of NATO depends on how patient Trump is. It won't be through a deal with Denmark though, but I guess we can call that semantics. I do think my own politicians are sort of hoping they can avoid "losing" Greenland by giving away the remaining restrictions on what the US military can do in Greenland, but I doubt they will succeed with that. > I don’t think you are there yet. I agree. In some ways Trump being the way he is, has been healthy for Europe. I'm personally more worried about tech. Most of my applications on my smartphone wouldn't work without either the Apple store or Google Play. It's sort of silly to have a national digital ID that I can't run on GrapheneOS after all, I do have the physical key thing though, but you get the point. With our public sector dependence on Microsoft and to some degree Amazon, Trump could frankly order a complete shutdown of our entire society by telling Azure and AWS to shut down everything in Denmark.
