Trump heads to Davos more aggressive and ambitious than ever

DAVOS, Switzerland — President Trump will depart for Davos on Tuesday feeling more confident than ever in his own power to shape global events and more willing to bully and berate anyone who stands in his way. Why it matters: In recent weeks, Trump has shown he’s no longer content just dominating the U.S. and the news cycle — he wants to dominate the world.

The big picture: Trump is heading to Switzerland after threatening tariffs on Denmark and seven other NATO allies — all of whom sent small detachments of troops to Greenland — if no deal is reached to hand the island to the U.S. by Feb. 1.

While in Davos, he’ll announce he’s expanding the remit of his ” Board of Peace ” for Gaza beyond the enclave, in what some alarmed allies see as an attempt to establish a rival UN Security Council —
