He actually said the following:

"We have 62 F18s, do they fly without Americans, no they don't."



So no, you can't defend yourself without the Americans.

Sounds good to me. We have spent $22 trillion on NATO since 1980. Give us Greenland in exchange for all that money spent, then we will all go our separate ways.

I do think by the end of Trump’s term we will own Greenland and we will be out of NATO, I think that is why he wants Greenland, to be able to pull out of NATO.

I think he just said (paraphrasing), "yes, Europe can unequivocally defend itself without Americans, as long as the Americans keep doing the shite we need them to do so we can defend ourselves."

We should pull defense funding unless they kick all the muslims out of Europe.

If the Greenland play was the 3d chess to get us out of NATO, then we truly do not deserve this man.
