I think Trump thinks that when the ice sheets melt it'll be worth it. That America will suffer in the short term, but have access to a giant archipelago in the long term that'll secure his legacy as an American hero. Unfortunately for him, his very actions might make it impossible for the US to capitalize on Greenland in any meaningful way.
I genuinely think it's in the interests of all other powerful countries to stoke regional tensions over the next few decades and break up the union, and I wouldn't be surprised if that's how things go. As much as I hate this country and think the empire needs to be knocked down a few pegs, civil war would not be a good thing. Such a heavily armed country descending into instability would be violent on a never before seen scale, and that violence will not stay in its borders.
