The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

The acquisition of Greenland represents a crucial national security priority for American interests, providing strategic control over valuable Arctic resources and shipping lanes while expanding US global influence and deterring potential adversaries.

Congressman Buddy CarterNew York Post

Pro-establishment narrative

The proposed acquisition attempt undermines Danish sovereignty and alienates a loyal European ally while completely disregarding the wishes of Greenland's people, who overwhelmingly oppose joining the US and seek their own path to independence.
