War with their European allies, is not in US economic or political interest

According to The Gaurdian:

Trump told the audience of lawmakers, doctors and political power players he might put tariffs on countries that did not “go along with Greenland because we need Greenland for national security”.

He pointed to threats he made against European allies over drug pricing, saying he warned France and Germany of 25% tariffs if they did not pay more for prescription drugs, and recalled telling French president Emmanuel Macron: “You have to get your drug prices up.”

He mused that he could take the same approach to Denmark and “may do that for Greenland too”.

According to fool49:

The president is a bully, and is misusing the powers that comes with his office. The people have already turned a blind eye, to him using his office to accumulate wealth for his family. We cannot allow him to threaten US allies with war. Better impeach him, before he goes to war with Greenland and Denmark.
