In a recent comprehensive interview, President Trump reiterated his interest in the potential US acquisition of Greenland and supported his national security team amidst the Signal controversy.

Trump, while talking to NBC, claimed that all options were on the table when it came to taking ownership of the island territory recently visited by Vice President JD Vance.

“We’ll get Greenland. Yeah, 100%,” Trump told the outlet.

“Good possibility that we could do it without military force,” he said, adding as a caveat, “I don’t take anything off the table.”

“You have ships sailed outside Greenland from Russia, from China and from many other places. And we’re not going to allow things to happen that are going to be — that are going to hurt the world or the United States,” the commander in chief added.

When asked what type of message the annexation of Greenland would send to Russia and the rest of the world, Trump was unfazed.

“I don’t really think about that. I don’t really care. Greenland’s a very separate subject, very different. It’s international peace. It’s international security and strength,” he said.

Trump also discussed the national security leak that occurred on Signal earlier this week.

“I have no idea what Signal is. I don’t care what Signal is,” Trump said bluntly.

“All I can tell you is it’s just a witch hunt, and it’s the only thing the press wants to talk about, because you have nothing else to talk about. Because it’s been the greatest 100-day presidency in the history of our country,” he added.

“I don’t fire people because of fake news and because of witch hunts,” Trump said, calling the story “fake news” throughout the interview, the outlet reported.

The president reiterated that he has confidence in both National Security Adviser Mike Waltz and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

“I think it’s just a witch hunt and the fake news, like you, talk about it all the time, but ut’s just a witch hunt, and it shouldn’t be talked [about],” he said.

The president further rejected concerns over foreign auto-makers raising their prices.

“I couldn’t care less. I hope they raise their prices, because if they do, people are gonna buy American-made cars. We have plenty.”
