I have friends who think our new President-elect is crazy after he said that the US needs to take the Panama Canal back, we need to buy Greenland, and Canada should become our 51st state. But Donald Trump is most certainly NOT crazy, his statements are based on National Security issues that few ordinary Americans understand.
The Panama Canal
Then President Carter gave the Panama Canal to Panama in 1999 after the US built it and has always been the major user of it. Carter sold it for $1. Currently, the US is being charged ridiculously high fees for ship passage through it. But the main issue is that the Torrijos–Carter Treaties signed over the action required that the canal remain NEUTRAL. Of the five ports at the canal, 2 of them, both at the beginning and end of the canal are manned by a company from China.
The Panama Canal is vital to American shipping, and our national security. However, the President of Panama is throwing a fit, pushing back and vowing to use the UN to stop any takeover.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

“Representative Carlos Gimenez (R-FL) has voiced support for Trump’s concerns, emphasizing the strategic importance of the Panama Canal to U.S. national security. In a recent interview, Gimenez highlighted the growing presence of Chinese entities in the region, stating, “China has a way of trying to either buy or coerce different influencers or politicians to do their bidding.” He pointed out that Chinese companies manage ports at both ends of the canal, raising alarms about potential implications for U.S. interests.” The Econotimes
Greenland
Why would President-elect Trump care about Greenland? Basically, Trump is a ninja multi-tasker. We have an airbase on the island: Thule. It gives the United States warning in case of “missile attacks, provides space surveillance and control for NORAD and the Air Force Space Command.”

Dr. Walter Berbrick, is the founder of the ‘Arctic Studies Group at the U.S. Naval War College, as well as the former senior adviser to the 77th Secretary of the Navy and the Special Representative for the Arctic Region.’ He stated that Greenland has resources that are needed for US security. His treatise on why Trump is concerned about Greenland should be required reading for every foolish leftist. (If they can read).
“Greenland is a linchpin for U.S. national security and the future of the free world,” he stated. “Its geographic position provides unparalleled strategic access to the Arctic, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans — enabling the United States to monitor and deter threats against North America and NATO allies.”
Beyond its strategic location, Dr. Berbrick noted, Greenland offers vast reserves of rare earth elements, critical to advanced technology and military systems.
“Economically, Greenland holds vast reserves of rare earth minerals essential for U.S. technological leadership and military readiness,” he explained.
He also warned about the risks of allowing authoritarian powers like China and Russia to dominate Greenland’s resources and influence.” Joshua Klein at Breitbart
Canada
Canada is riddled with lefties, including their Prime Minister. Why would Trump tease them about becoming our “51st state?” To be sure, some are taking it seriously and would love to join us…most however would decline it. Some Canadian legislators are even threatening war with the United States. There are some national security issues here that need addressing.
Tom Homan, named Sunday as the official in charge of all U.S. border issues, said in a television interview that he expects there will be “tough conversations” with Ottawa about the situation along the Canada-U.S. border.
“The problem with the northern border is a huge national security issue,” Homan told 7News in Watertown, N.Y., a community some 40 kilometres from a crossing into eastern Ontario. Homan is from the area.
He said “special interest aliens” — individuals from countries the U.S. says sponsor terror — use Canada as a gateway into the U.S.
“Because they know, [there’s] a lot less, fewer officers here,” Homan said. “It’s one of the things I’ll tackle when I’m in the White House.”
In raw numbers, irregular crossings along the U.S. border with Mexico substantially outpace those over the Canadian border. However, human smuggling activity from Canada has risen sharply over the past two years, particularly along the border between eastern Ontario, Quebec, New York and Vermont.
U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) agents apprehended over 19,000 individuals, from 97 different countries, through this area over a 12-month span ending Oct. 2, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection statistics. ” CBC Canada

Is an extremely dumb thing to do when all Trump wants is for Canada to secure its border.

They’d better not try cutting off power…just saying.
Epic! Absolutely epic! 🤣Trudeau deserves all of this taunting. After years of Trudeau using Trump as a political pinata in Canada, Trump is returning the favor…in spades.
Make no mistake, as long as little Justin remains in power, Canada’s relationship with the US is fucked. pic.twitter.com/IxQ6tMqHMj— Tokyo Rosie (@RosieRocks29) December 10, 2024
From the Special Interest migrants crossing the Canada-US border from known terrorist countries to a constant upheaval in Canadian politics, the problems have allowed Donald Trump fodder for returning the favor of trolling. The real national security issues will have to be addressed by the incoming administration. Trudeau is immensely unpopular after his Hitler-like actions toward his own people during Covid. It will matter whether he is removed from office in the Canadian elections.
Now do you see the problems Trump is tackling even before he is sworn in? From Panama to Greenland to Canada, he is most certainly not crazy.
