Trump administration has made plans to take Greenland by force if necessary

Trump’s idea to takeover Greenland is ridiculous.

SMITH: Is it policy of the DoD that we need to be prepared to take Greenland by force if necessary?HEGSETH: The American people would want the Pentagon to have plans for any particular contingencyS: I don't think the American people elected Trump because they were hoping we'd invade Greenland

holy shit — GOP Rep. Mike Turner tries to "help out" Hegseth by getting him to confirm that the Pentagon does not in fact have plans to take Greenland by force, but Hegseth instead more or less testifies that yep, they have devised plans for that
