President-elect Donald Trump’s tough talk about Greenland and the Panama Canal shows that he’s most comfortable playing offense, even if nothing much comes of it.

Trump again having designs on Greenland comes after the President-elect suggested that the U.S. could retake control of the Panama Canal.

In recent days the president-elect has called for asserting U.S. control over the Panama Canal and Greenland, showing that his “America First” philosophy has an expansionist dimension.
