Credited from: NEWSWEEK

  • Donald Trump has proposed expanding the U.S. by suggesting Canada join as the 51st state, acquiring Greenland, and reclaiming the Panama Canal.
  • Experts note these ideas reflect a 19th-century approach to imperialism and territory acquisition reminiscent of past U.S. expansion efforts.
  • Trump's announcement of a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico aims to address drug trafficking and illegal migration.
  • Polling reveals only 13% of Canadians support the idea of joining the U.S., with no major political backing for the proposal.
  • Critics liken Trump's approach to the aggressive territorial policies of past presidents, particularly Theodore Roosevelt, emphasizing a shift from modern diplomatic strategies.
