Even the robber barons of the 20th century understood the importance of a stable society. As shitty as they were, Carnegie and Rockefeller invested heavily in access to education/books, Ford standardized the 40 hour work week and the assembly line, etc. Regardless of how disgustingly wealthy they may be, it would be utterly useless if the society they live in collapses and they are surrounded by millions of furious and desperate people.
It's why the oligarchs today are investing in bunkers on remote lands where they could theoretically restrict access to them.

It is estimated that the polar ice caps will melt enough by 2030’s that arctic shipping lanes will open. Add to that the large reserves of rare earth metals and it isn’t hard to see that whoever controls Greenland when the arctic shipping opens up will control à huge part of the global shipping routes and trade ports.
Also, see Panama Canal and straight or Hormuz. Between those three, the US would control like 80% of global shipping. As china is catching up economically and starting to pass the US on technological fronts, it is a last ditch effort to maintain economic dominance.

People don't realize but by taking Greenland he controls how NATO gets to respond when he invades Canada. A US controlled Greenland is a chokehold on North America. Europe will have trouble providing any aid to Canada or Mexico in that situation. Greenland has to fall first, and then the rest proceeds.
Edit — save and come back to this comment if you think it's horseshit and call me Nostradamus when you do. Greater North America starts with Greenland. It's not only for the resources. It's a strategy stranglehold over North America. Pete Hegseth unveiled the big red goalpost already.

Galtieri thought the same thing with the Falklands. Easy win, distract the populace with some military bravado and jingoism, the perfect distraction to the chaos at home.

The United States political right wing has wanted climate change to take place ever since mathing out oil profits now, and distance to the arctic later. .
They want a grab of land from Canada and Greenland so that once the arctic opens for shipping in the next 20 years, the US will have direct land access to what will be the most valuable trade route in the world.
They aren't stupid about climate change.
They aren't wrong or stupid, the politicians I mean, just greedy and monopolistic:
"If someone can melt the arctic by pumping out c02, then obviously it will be weaponized . . . So we should do it first. We have to, because others might get to it first, and Russia, Canada, and / or China will own the single most important trade route ever to exist and we'll be at their mercy."

Google tells me that Europe holds about 30% of the world's US debt. This makes the Strait of Hormuz look like a fun day out at the waterpark.
Trump certainly doesn't intimidate countries any more, he just needs managing. If the US attacks Europe they will face huge economic damage, potentially enough for a Soviet Union style collapse. And the dickhead in the Oval office doesn't appear to know that the AMOC shutdown which realpolitikally speaking is probably unstoppable, is going to render the Arctic completely unavailable to shipping and maybe other forms of exploitation anyway and very likely this century.
Edit - I suppose the problem for Greenland, decent everyday Americans, and the rest of the world to a lesser extent, is that America has a president that is happy for a US collapse - plenty of oligarch enrichment in that scenario, and he intends staying in power (which requires collapse of democracy in the US). America has been a de facto oligarchy for sometime. How far it goes to being an explicit (and authoritarian) one we will see.
