So, why exactly is Trump posturing like a colonizer?
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
This seems like a major shift in his foreign policy. Greenland, Canada, and now Gaza. Also the Panama canal and Gulf of America to a lesser extent.
My first thought is that it's part of the blitzkrieg of nonstop executive actions -- every day feels like a week of developments. There are only so many hours and ammo the Deep State has to fight back. Especially with Elon defunding so much of the covert operations.
So are these moves posturing or truly a new agenda to grow the U.S. past the borders it's had for many decades?
I've posted this before about Greenland but it bears repeating:
When the Northwest Passage finally reveals itself then Greenland will become a huge asset. Whoever owns those lanes owns the greatest trade route between Europe and West America and Asia. It would cut travel time down by 30-40% between East Asia and Europe.
Greenland has deep water ports along the northwest passage, so it's a critical way point in that journey. Trump is fighting hard for the Panama canal... Greenland + Northwest Passage is even more important. Trump wants to lock down the entire upper equatorial western hemisphere trade routes for America for the rest of time: and he's right to do so. He who controls the seas controls trade.
Also, you don't want China nor Russia to build bases and ports there, it's way too close to America. First Strike response would be significantly reduced because of its geo proximity to major US cities, including DC and NYC. There's a reason the US is a natural impenetrable, unseigable fortress, and it's distance from the major powers. If one secures Greenland and turns it into a forward operating base weaponized with ICBMs, suddenly America loses her greatest advantage at defense.
And none of this mentions how Greenland has an insane amount of natural resources.
Basically, it's a win win win for America, and we should be doing it as the arctic ice caps continue to melt.
