The Spin
Anti-Trump narrative
This choice of words was needed to deliver a strong message to Donald Trump. It's utterly unacceptable that Trump alludes to trampling Danish sovereignty over a territory that has been its own long before America was founded — especially as both Denmark and the US are NATO allies and no one in Denmark would oppose more US bases in Greenland.
Pro-Trump narrative
Vistisen had his 15 minutes of fame after his message to Trump, which isn't really a big deal despite media attempts to hype it up. Furthermore, it's ironic that legacy media decided not to report that he acknowledged problems between Denmark and Greenland after that. While Greenland is a thorn in Denmark's side, an America-Greenland relationship is deeply intriguing — especially in today's strategic environment.
