And then you have a couple hundred special forces officers who just land and take over the capital, the airport, the parliament and so on.

But that's the kind of scenario that really can be deterred with the small European force that they deployed in January.

You blow up the runways, you have troops who will fight back, and suddenly it's a politically unviable thing, and it's the kind of thing where you can be deterred.

And so as long as the Europeans essentially continue to show that they will fight for Greenland, as they showed in January...

I think that, you know, there might be a lot of continued interest, rhetoric, aggression, influence operations, and every manner of sort of denigrating remarks towards Greenland and Denmark and Europe for the remainder of the term and possibly beyond.

But I think that the message was sent that Europe will fight for this and there will be casualties on both sides.

And the question is, is that something that Trump or any president for that matter could survive domestically?

Thank you so much for having me on, Dave.
