Incorrect. The American claim was that Denmark does not do enough to protect Greenland. The reaction to that was to increase the NATO presence on Greenland. Why this is being considered threatening behavior (when an ally does exactly what you ask of them) is because politicians want to play both sides of the argument. The hope is that every action can be spun in the press so they can get whatever outcome they please
The US already can expand its presence in Greenland legally. It is about annexation and no one is concealing anything, there is no subtlety. Announced to take Greenland right after having illegally kidnapping the president of Venezuela: this was and still is a direct threat from USA to Europe that they are willing to use force against NATO allies and nothing else.
