How much do native Greenlanders like being governed by Denmark, would they conceivably be better off as US citizens? Obviously self governance is best but could they defend their own territory in that case. I think there's a case to be made for this idea and few Americans regret having Alaska as part of the union.
Lets see here.... giving up social nets and universal healthcare, adopting policies that are destroying their home, very likely never be granted statehood, thus have little say in federal politics....
Im going to go with a strong no. They arent better off as US citizens.
