Trump has no idea why he wants Greenland. Someone close to him is feeding him ideas, while feeding his ego.
Greenland is set to become an economic producer in the future, but we have maybe a century before that even starts. I gotta think you’re right, Greenland is a distraction from all the other bullshit. Keep them talking and no one will notice the really evil shit
There’s that, but also whoever controls the panama canal has a huge amount of power in global trade. Almost anything made in China and sold East of the Mississippi in the US went through the canal. Almost anything Made in the western US and sold in the EU went through the canal.
Panama is also going through a drought that is lowering the levels in the reservoirs they use to raise the locks. This is causing them to raise crossing fees and restrict traffic. The line-go-up people hate that, as they’d turn panama into a desert before they slowed the increase in their profits.
It’s not even specifically about hiding the evil shit (which is still an issue, of course). The pos has weaponized gish gallop to the utmost extreme, flooding news with absurdities so it becomes an exercise in futility to handle any of them. A lot won’t go anywhere, either, which helps normalize it all further.

Greenland is because Putin wants to destabilize both the EU and NATO. He wants the US to lose its allies.
Panama is because Russian ships aren’t allowed through, and Outin wants that to change.
