Well, the great and powerful President Donald J. Trump is DOING IT AGAIN—he’s making people’s heads explode by simply and in straight-forward language asserting the national security interests of the United States above those of other nations.

This time, by asserting America’s national security interest in Greenland, just off America’s coast, sharing our North American continent, and of vital importance to the defense of the United States.  The same Greenland and surrounding Arctic waters that are currently swimming with Russian and Chinese assets..

Indeed, Trump is directly affirming a reality of international relations that too many have politely ignored for too long—America has NO PEER NATIONS IN OUR HEMISPHERE, and arguably not in the entire world. 

As the guarantor of Pax Americana, the national security interests of America must rationally trump (heh!) those of all other nations, particularly of course those of our global adversaries, but also our non-peer allies.
