Longtime Republican politician and MAGA ally Mitch McConnell is publicly breaking with President Donald Trump over his renewed push to acquire Greenland, calling his efforts to take over the island "unseemly" and "counterproductive."
In a statement, McConnell argued that "Threats and intimidation by U.S. officials over American ownership of Greenland are as unseemly as they are counterproductive. And the use of force to seize the sovereign democratic territory of one of America's most loyal and capable allies would be an especially catastrophic act of strategic self-harm to America and its global influence."
