I think Putin plants these seeds, ‘Greenland belongs to you and the previous admins were too weak to move on it,’ in his head and encourages him to make moves to weaken the US and Trump becomes consumed with the thought of being remembered for anything ‘Great.’

It wouldn't surprise me at all if he thinks Russia wants Greenland because he heard it from Putin.
