Greenland is part of NATO. The US has a military base there - and used to have six. Which they are welcome to reestablish. Absolutely no one in NATO is denying the American military access to Greenland. The US could put 100,000 troops in Greenland to counter Russia and it would be absolutely fine.
There is zero strategic need to violently take over Greenland. The US already has everything they need from Greenland.
On the other hand, if we try to take over, it would destroy NATO and the US would almost certainly face sanctions at the very least, if not armed hostility with our former allies - which would leave Russia and China with a lot more leeway to do whatever the heck they want. If China wants to retake Taiwan (and its chip factories) or Russia wants to retake parts of Alaska separated from the lower 48 by a hostile Canada, we’re not going to have any friends to help us do anything about it. For that matter, we might have trouble holding unto our other European bases which have been so critical in troop support and rapid deployment, whether because we get evicted or captured.
In short, attacking Greenland would strengthen the strategic position of Russia and China, destabilizing the balance of power and be a crippling blow to our national security. I can only guess that such suggestions come from foreign actors.

If the US stopped doing both (mandated health costs are equal for all countries, not more for the US, and had them defend themselves then they would have to shift their budgets away from all these fun freebies.

Seriously. Denmark Offers Greenland:
- Lifetime Free Health Care
- Lifetime Free Education
- Strongest Pension In The World
- Paid Maternity/Paternity Leave

It would be a wonderful dream come true if Denmark took over the USA.
