One thing I never heard a talk about. What would happen to all the US bases in the NATO countrys? I can't imagine the US could fly from NATOs countrys bases and attack Greenland and partner. Would for ex. germany attack Ramstein?

There's talk of removing base access:

"Why should the U.S. continue to have access to these bases, or receive support from allies’ naval assets, air forces, or even intelligence services, if it tries to take sovereign territory from a NATO member like Denmark? "

At some point Germany and others will feel the US presence on their soil being occupation forces and not joint NATO forces.

>being occupation forces

That's literally what they are. American forces appeared in Germany in 1945.

AFAIK, US bases / equipment / etc. are negotiated with the host countries, and in that sense not directly controlled by NATO.

So if the US decides to resign from NATO, they would likely face challenges directly with Germany regarding their existing agreement.

Yes, in case of an actual war the US soldiers on those bases would quickly become prisoners of war.
