The United States offered to buy Greenland from Denmark in 1867, 1910, in 1946 for $100,000,000, 1955, 2019, and 2025. Denmark rejected all offers. Back in 1946 & 1955 it was all about defense against Russia.
One theory of many floating around today is Trump wants Greenland to build a missile defense system. Russian ICBMs sail over Greenland before coming into the USA.
Another theory is a projection of power of the Western hemisphere.
Another is to build a huge shipping port that the US of course will own and share with China & Russia once the wars are over. Trump is going to make some sort of deal with China this year. Likely given he's traveling to Beijing in April and another trip later this year.
I have no idea and not sure about any of those theories.
