What is going on with the US? I'm really scared right now guys!

Totally understandable.. Things look scary because U.S. politics tend to be loud, unstable, and full of aggressive rhetoric right now, especially from Donald Trump.
But most of this is talk, not immediate action as institutions, allies, and international law still act as brakes, and we’re not on the edge of sudden war or collapse.

I would not worry about it .

Review the facts:
- Greenland despite being a Danish territory is largely of self-governing and has traditionally had the the right to pursue independence
- Very rich in natural resources
- There has been a massive US presence through military, air force, and even space force there and has been for ages and under an old treaty with Denmark has always been welcome to expand this influence anyway
- Denmark is preparing to heighten security there, including by buying F16s... directly form the US itself (Wtf)

Whole thing makes little sense and points publicly toward a grand theatrical but privately, the fact the inuit and other leaders of Greenland almost unanimously favour independence signals this to be an attempt to force the hand of Greenlands leaders to concede this massive sovereignty and degree of independence in favour of greater protection under Danish rulership and regulation under international law probably. In other words, doesn't matter whether it's Denmark or the US - they're allies working together to 'herd a sheep' that's gone a little astray before any 'real' rivals - probably BRICS leaning can manipulate the situation there for their own benefit.
