NATO was established by treaty that was ratified by congress. It's a law. If shit for brains orders an attack on Greenland he would be violating the treaty which is bigger than just a law.
Would the military really follow am order that's so clearly illegal. This would be way bigger than blowing up boats.
Technically speaking any unit if the US military that is oedered to attack Greenlad should attack itself.
Trump needs Congress approval to declare war. But there's loopholes. Trump can order an attack for defensive purposes lasting 60 days. He has been yammering on that USA needs it for defensive purposes.
He grabbed Maduro without congressional approval. It was formulated as a police action to arrest a drug smuggler
Perhaps his next move is to arrest the infamous inuit pickled herring smuggler?
