Saying “we gotta get Greenland” when the people in Greenland say they don’t want to join the US. Then refusing to rule out using force. If you want to say that no exact act of treachery has been committed, then substitute “treacherous words”, which also harms alliances.
Invading ones allies has been treacherous for millenia. If you want to be pedantic, you can say the U.S. President is openly threatening treachery, and showing as part of his character an affinity for it.
This is about way more than a few tariffs. Think Venezuela, think madman jizzing over the idea of invading greenland, or just throwing tantrums on an international scale.
But Iraq, Afghanistan, Grenada, Panama, Vietnam ... were not a problem?
Ahistorical BS, I am sorry. As if Trump is a radical departure of NORMS. Euros were chanting HO HO HO CHI MIN in 1968 in the streets of Berlin and Paris.
There is a long tradition of anti-American feelings outside the US, like with any hegemon.
The global left had to build walls to keep their people IN, crush them with tanks, from Prague to Berlin to Beijing. So there is that.
HN turning so left is weird to watch, I guess a reflection of PG's stances and moderation/group votes. Well, money does not give a fig.

It is an egregious violation of the Constitution, which specifically says that only Congress can impose taxes.
