The president is kind of impressionable and flips his position depending on who he talked to last. The Russians have an influence either directly or through others he speaks to and would love him to invade Greenland as it would break NATO and legitimise their whole strategy of being able to invade and annex their neighbours of the basis of some bs excuse. The Russians really want NATO to collapse and to take back Ukraine and the Baltics. Or at least Putin's lot do.
The whole rationale is quite Russian in style - they have to invade Ukraine because it was an existential threat - it never was - they have to denazifi it - it's run by a democratically elected jewish comedian. And similarly Trump has to take Greenland before Russia or China does - there's no way that was happening. The whole thing is rather mafia style in that the reasons are ridiculous as a way of showing power, like we need money to protect you in that case.
That said the US has been interested in acquiring Greenland for ages.
