Trump's Greenland Gambit Risks NATO and Global Stability
Techdirt argues that President Trump’s Greenland obsession—framed as a national-security issue but driven by a grievance over a Nobel Prize—threatens NATO unity and global stability. The piece notes that Greenland is Danish territory with long-standing treaties giving the US military access, argues the president’s threats could weaken allies and embolden adversaries, and highlights calls to invoke the 25th Amendment. It also criticizes Congress for inaction, catalogs the destabilizing diplomatic signals (tariffs on NATO allies, escalation rhetoric), and warns that this episodes underscores a presidency propped up by fear of dissent rather than sound policy.
