In reply to the discussion: JD Vance Warns There's 'Very Strong Evidence' China, Russia Want Greenland [View all]delisen
(6,874 posts)9. The answer would be for the US to keep NATO strong.

It seems absurd for Vance to make this statement in the face of Trump’s openly pro-Russia, pro-authoritarian stance.
I guess it is someone other than Trump who holds the key that winds up the JD Vance doll.
