Free Greenland/Danish healthcare vs. US insurance based healthcare?
The latter leaves between 44,000 and 90,000 dead a year because they don’t have cover. It also leaves 550,000 families bankrupt a year from medical bills.
This is classic ‘photo op going over the heads of leaders direct diplomacy’ from #Trump but smells of #Vance.

But equally #Trump and #Vance may be trying to prevent the world realising it was actually the Danish who came to the rescue of an American submarine crew on Saturday: ‘#Danish Arctic Command evacuates US submariner Trump's post on Saturday came after Denmark's Joint Arctic Command said it had evacuated a US submarine crew member who required urgent medical attention. The submarine was in #Greenland's waters, seven nautical miles outside of #Nuuk.’ https://amp.dw.com/en/trump-says-sending-great-hospital-boat-to-greenland/a-76076414
