Does the Greenland coalition at least demonstrate the strengthening of nationalist opposition to Trump's American expansionism?

Nationalism is complicated in Greenland. Do you mean Danish nationalism or Greenlandic nationalism? The pro-Danish parties did very well in the election, no doubt because the threats from Trump made Greenlandic independence more questionable. But the most stauntly pro-independence party, Naleraq, also did very well. Naleraq officially favours closer ties to the US, but in the context of an independent Greenland. The failure of the left parties may have also been due to socio-economic issues, which were another major topic in the campaign.
