GOP Rebels Push Back on Trump's Greenland Gambit

TL;DR Summary
Several Republicans publicly warned against President Trump's renewed push to seize Greenland, arguing it would undermine NATO cohesion and alienate allies. Notable dissenters include Thom Tillis, Don Bacon, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski and Mike Turner, who stressed Greenland's sovereignty and Denmark's role, warning the move could damage US credibility. European partners reacted with alarm as Trump pressed on with nat’l-security justifications and tariff threats; despite some GOP alignment on other issues, the effort lacks broad party support and could carry political risks for the president.
