Donald Trump's desires on Greenland are not going away, and the rest of the world is quickly being dragged into the mix.

In the Late Night video above Seth Meyers attempts to make sense of it all, from the U.S. president's continuing anger about not receiving the Nobel Peace Prize to the "eight wars" he supposedly stopped ("I stopped eight wars including Infinity War, World War Z, War of the Roses and of course the Star Wars," drawls Meyers. "Think about it, you used to look at the sky, there was so much lasers.")

"So because a country that does not govern Greenland did not give him a Nobel Peace Prize for stopping wars that were not wars, Trump is now threatening to start a new war with Denmark," summarises Meyers. "Which is not Norway, which does not control the Nobel Peace Prize."
