It's true that Jon and the Northerners could care little about the Iron Throne. But Littlefinger's problem is that Dany is coming to seize the Iron Throne. She is looking at possible diplomatic marriages and can solidify her hold on the throne and unite the kingdom with a marriage to Jon. She may not be aware of the political situation in the North yet, but she will be when she arrives. For Jon's part, he is concerned about "what lies beyond the wall". He needs Dany's army and dragons to defeat that. For both Dany and Jon, this marriage would be a win-win situation politically (and they may even like each other, hook-up and create little Targ dragon babies to rule the world).
When Littlefinger disclosed his plan to Sansa, it had nothing to do with any warm fuzzy feelings for her. She realized that, of course. It was a power-sharing offer. He wanted her to petition to the Northern Lords to become Queen of the North in order to keep Jon from being made King of the North. If she was Queen of the North, he could marry her and unite a large part of the kingdom. That didn't happen.
Sansa is in imminent danger because Littlefinger disclosed his end game to her in his bid to recruit her. Jon is in imminent danger because he stands in Littlefinger's way. Of course Jon knows nothing of this because Sansa never tells people stuff at opportune times, like "Hey, maybe you should wait to charge headlong into Ramsey's forces and destroy all of your cavalry and most of your forces because there is another army on its way". That would have been a little helpful, eh. Also, Jon doesn't know anything about this because... Jon Snow "knows nothing".
Littlefinger will make some kind of move early next season, and it will be nasty.
I agree with most of this and it could be win win for danny and jon... but jon doesn't have much to offer her from the marriage pack... A country torn apart by war houses all but destroyed from all the wars.. And a huge battle to fight against the undead. shed be better off marrying littlefinger. (although sansa being queen would have been great for littlefinger if she gave him want he wanted..)
A price will be paid for littlefingers help... what that is though could be very steep.
I think this series ending with danny on the throne would be too cliché epesically when her death would start the great wheel spinning again she wants to smash. really because the whole series seems to be building to that end so it shouldn't happen like that.
Before its all done I could see the 7 kingdoms being 7 kingdoms again. or all dead.
I feel danny will have to kill her whole army as she is providing a ton of fuel for the night king... and winter is here and the people from slavers bay wont handle that well.
