Stephen Miller, Trump’s deputy chief of staff, told CNN on Monday that “nobody is going to fight the U.S. militarily over the future of Greenland.”

Last month, Trump created the position of special envoy to Greenland and appointed Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry to the role. He declared his goal was to “make Greenland a part of the U.S.”

Meanwhile, U.S. Vice President JD Vance, on a visit to the territory in March, said "the people of Greenland are going to have self-determination.” He added: "We hope that they choose to partner with the United States, because we're the only nation on Earth that will respect their sovereignty and respect their security.”

"the people of Greenland are going to have self-determination.”

They'll be free to choose between working the mines for less than basic substance or die on a barren ecologically destroyed wasteland.

Also: "We're the only nation in earth who will respect their sovereignty"

LOL. Can we check with the Trump administration what their understanding of the meaning of the word "sovereignty" is?
