Why This Score

This event scores 0 on constitutional damage as it involves no actual policy action, legal mechanism, or institutional impact - merely diplomatic posturing about a hypothetical territorial acquisition that has zero legal pathway. The Greenland leader's willingness to 'talk' creates no constitutional mechanism whatsoever. However, it scores 27.66 on distraction/hype: Layer 1 captures high meme-ability (buying Greenland absurdity), strong media friendliness (international drama, Trump brand), moderate outrage/novelty. Layer 2 shows significant mismatch (diplomatic theater vs substantive policy), pattern matching to Trump's previous Greenland statements, and narrative pivot potential. Intentionality at 9/15 (information_operation mechanism, absurdist diplomatic framing) modulates Layer 2 to 36% weight. D-score of -27.66 clearly places this on List B as pure distraction spectacle with no constitutional substance.

IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING

Monitor for any actual policy proposals or legal mechanisms that could emerge from diplomatic discussions, though none are anticipated given sovereignty constraints and lack of Danish/Greenlandic interest in territorial transfer.
