Let’s talk about Greenland. Yes, that giant hunk of ice up north that most people forget exists. For Trump, though, it’s not just a frozen wasteland—it’s a vital piece of the national security puzzle.
“Well, we need Greenland for national security purposes. I’ve been told that for a long time, long before I even ran. I mean, people have been talking about it for a long time. You have approximately 45,000 people there. People really don’t even know if Denmark has any legal right to it,” Trump said, adding:
“But if they do, they should give it up because we need it for national security. That’s for the free world. I’m talking about protecting the free world. You look at—you don’t even need binoculars. You look outside; you have China ships all over the place. You have Russian ships all over the place. We’re not letting that happen. We’re not letting it happen.”
And if Denmark wants to get to a conclusion but nobody knows if they even have any right, title, or interest, the people are going to probably vote for independence or to come into the United States. But if they did, if they did do that, then I would tariff Denmark at a very high level.
All of that is Trump-speak for: If it’s good for America, we should have it.
And he’s got a point. Greenland’s strategic location makes it an ideal location to monitor Russian and Chinese activity in the region. Critics, of course, are losing their minds over the estimated trillion-dollar price tag. But Trump’s response? Long-term security is priceless.

Now let’s head south to Panama, where Trump’s laser focus is on the canal. You know, the one we built but handed over in 1999. According to Trump, that was a mistake, and now it’s time to fix it.
“We will never allow the waterway to fall into the wrong hands,” he said. Translation? China, we’re looking at you.
China’s been cozying up to Panama, and Trump sees that as a direct threat to U.S. security and global trade. He’s invoking the Monroe Doctrine—basically America’s “stay out of our yard” policy—to justify his stance. Love it or hate it, you’ve got to admit it’s bold.
Of course, the mainstream media is having a field day with all of this. According to Trump supporters, the media’s narrative is as predictable as a CNN panel.
“They hate America. They hate our Constitution. All they want is control,” is a sentiment you’ll hear echoed across Trump’s base. Whether it’s MSNBC’s hit pieces or Twitter activists, the media rarely gives Trump credit for his strategic thinking.
And let’s not forget the Putin card. Critics are quick to label Trump as “soft” on Russia, despite his moves to curb Russian and Chinese influence. It’s almost like they didn’t read the part where Trump consistently outmaneuvered global rivals.
The biggest argument against Trump’s plans? The cost. A trillion dollars for Greenland? Billions more for Panama? Critics clutch their pearls and scream, “How will we pay for this?”
Trump’s supporters, however, have a different take: “Would you rather spend money now or go to war later?” They see these moves as investments in preventing future conflicts. And let’s face it, wars are a heck of a lot more expensive.
One pro-Trump commentator even quipped, “We’ve already paid for Greenland eight to ten times over.” A little hyperbolic? Maybe. But the sentiment resonates with those tired of footing the bill for NATO and foreign aid.
So, where does all this leave us? Trump’s Greenland and Panama strategies might sound like something out of a spy novel, but they’re rooted in a bigger vision for America’s future.
Will he pull it off? Who knows. But one thing’s certain: Trump’s presidency is like a rollercoaster—you never know what’s coming next, but you can’t look away.
Whether these plans become reality or stay as bold ambitions, they’re sparking conversations about national security, global influence, and America’s role on the world stage. And in true Trump fashion, they’re doing it with flair.
So buckle up, America. With Trump back in the driver’s seat, it’s going to be a wild ride.
