He is not sworn in yet, but his statements that Canada should become part of the US, and that he can't rule out using military force to gain control over the Panama Canal and Greenland, has already changed the tenor in Europe & Russia.

Putin now feels justified in his grab for Ukraine, and Russian bloggers are now predicting that Estonia, Finland & Poland are next!

Putin is not grabbing Ukraine. He’s pushing back on NATO expansion. Those bloggers are just spewing crap. Trump is also probably spewing crap just to be provocative or to be provocative as a starting point for new policies beneficial to the US. He seems to have trolled Trudeau to resignation.

Do you think we can get Greenland? Might be kind of cool.

I love you too, Dennis. 

Trump should give up the plan for a Bitcoin reserve, and focus on seizing Canada’s strategic maple syrup reserve.

That's a personal attack if I ever saw one.

the OP of this reddit thread has an interesting take

Trump's latest Canada, Panama canal and Greenland agenda is aimed to destroy taboo of territorial integrity, international respect for UN charter and international law so Russian annexations in Ukraine can be justified.
