The Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen said on Tuesday that Greenland is not for sale after President-elect Trump refused to commit to avoiding use of military force to take control of Greenland.

Trump wants to take Greenland from Denmark, make Canada the 51st state and retake the Panama Canal, threats reflecting his view that might makes right.

Trump says he wants to annex Greenland and Canada into the U.S., but once Trump is in the Oval Office, will these ambitions rise to the level of being a top priority?

The president-elect is suddenly pushing to annex Greenland, reclaim the Panama Canal and absorb Canada, provoking longtime allies just days before taking office.

Less than two weeks before taking office, President-elect Donald Trump took some of his most audacious claims and promises of the transition period and amped them up to new levels during a Mar-a-Lago news conference.

He views Mexico as a source of unwanted migration, drugs and Chinese goods, Canada as a liberal dystopia and Greenland as a weak link. Some of his remarks are bluster. The Gulf of Mexico, he says, should be renamed the Gulf of America.

With their loose talk about Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal, Trump and his followers show they don’t get what we get from those relationships.

President Donald Trump has been promising a flurry of executive action on Day 1, and even as he was being sworn in, there were executive orders already prepared for his signature.

Since his first run for the White House in 2016, Trump has repeatedly clashed with Mexico over a number of issues, including border security and the imposition of tariffs on imported goods.

Richard Hart has bakeries in Copenhagen and another planned in Mexico City, but his heart is in Sonoma County where he first learned to bake from an irreplaceable local icon.

Trump said he got Mexico to agree to stop migration through Mexico. Trump claims his influence caused the Israel-Hezbollah truce, that he got Canada to stop the U.S. opioid crisis and that he caused the stock market to reach a record.

Ahead of the inauguration, migrant shelters south of the Rio Grande are far from full, a reflection of the tougher measures imposed on both sides of the border.
