4. I think the people of Greenland should have a say

Denmark too. I would think that Greenland should be covered by NATO, so if we invade it, we might be forced to defend it too.

Seriously though, the people of the country, mostly indigenous, should have a say in their future. Maybe they would rather be a US territory. Maybe they can get something material out of it. I sincerely doubt Trump is just going to invade.
