But one idea NATO members have discussed as part of a compromise with Trump was that Denmark and the alliance would work with the U.S. to build more U.S. military bases on Greenland

Brilliant!

Especially since the US already had the rights to that space on Greenland. The US has abandoned several bases there. We still have the right to go back there.

NATO basically sold Trump something he already owned.

Trump is a fucking moron.

There is no compromising with bullies. Not in the long term.
