While the party remains split as President Trump presses to “take” Greenland, some in his party are publicly embracing his reasoning for wanting to control the territory.
Speaker Mike Johnson spoke to the British Parliament in London on Tuesday, implicitly backing President Trump’s argument that Greenland is vital to U.S. national security.
Seeking to calm tensions, Republicans and Democrats affirmed that they supported Denmark’s control of Greenland as President Trump vowed to buy it or take it over.
G.O.P. leaders succeeded in pressuring fellow senators who initially supported the measure that would have limited President Trump’s military authority in Venezuela.
Senator Josh Hawley, Republican of Missouri, reversed himself on the war powers resolution, saying that Secretary of State Marco Rubio and President Trump convinced him that it was not needed.
