If I were the glorious leader of the USA, I could just fall back on the fact that I am the smartest person by presidential decreed. But I am not, so I can only make specious arguments.
It is a great thought experiment though. How can the glorious leader justify the American claim to Greenland?
He has literally said he would claim it based on the US needing to take its shit and make it his shit. He doesn’t appear to need reasonable or even sane justifications. That said its ridiculous. It would be spitting on all of Europe and taking it militarily would have massive economic consequences.
