The crux of the matter is how long would it take to put in place the massive infrastructure-- housing, irrigation, drinkable water supply, public transportation and an untold number of other things to get the US to get all the parts needed for the manufacturing of all the stuff that is now blocked by these tariffs. They would also need schools, churches, grocery and other stores as well as restaurants.

Maybe invading Greenland would work but that would take probably decades to get all the roads and such up to basically wreck the beauty of Greenland by extensive and very deep mining. And they would have to counter the very probable terrorist attacks coming from the native Greenlanders.
