The second point looks implausible, given that he walked round her car and stood in front of it. But it would be a tiny lie compared with all the others.

Are there any instances in which Denmark has refused to co-operate with the USA over collective security in Greenland? Other than by declining to hand over the whole island.

I just watched a video of an ICE agent shooting dead a woman in her car, in Minnesota.
Then I read a statement about the shooting from President Trump, who claims that he's watched the video and it shows that she "violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer who seems to have shot her in self defense".
The video is readily available online. It clearly shows that the Officer was in no danger of being hit by her slow-moving vehicle. He fires three shots, one of them through the very corner of her windscreen - the bullet-hole is on video - the others through the side window, which appears to have been open.
Who are the Rs going to believe? Their president, or their eyes?

Trump wants four things:
to keep out of jail
to have people telling him how great he is
to make a lot of money
to be remembered as a great president.
Controlling Venezuela is aimed at making money - he hopes to be paid to bestow oil rights. Kidnapping Maduro is to encourage foreign presidents to toady to him and to bribe him.
Greenland is a greatness project - he wants his legacy to include expanding the territory of the United States
In reality, Venezuela doesn't traffic significant amounts of illegal drugs to the USA - look at the map. The US doesn't need to own Greenland to meet its security needs: Denmark has always co-operated with the US. But facts about his purported justifications are irrelevant to him, because those justifications are not his real reasons.
