Trump's recent comments about acquiring Greenland, threatening Canada, and even renaming the Gulf of Mexico reflect a troubling trend of performative imperialism.
When asked if he would disavow military coercion in his ambitions, Trump declined to assure that, stating 'I can't assure you on either of those two.' This makes his intentions unclear.
Despite the saber-rattling, it's uncertain if Trump has a concrete plan to escalate these ideas into real actions. The scenario seems more fitting for a game of Risk.
Previous administrations often managed to diffuse Trump's more outrageous aspirations, but this time he appears determined to pursue a bolder agenda without the typical Republican constraints.
