Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss what could be behind Trump's aggressive foreign policy toward Greenland and Venezuela. They examine how America's deteriorating fiscal situation may be driving territorial ambitions and resource extraction strategies. As tariff revenues fall short of expectations, they argue that the administration appears to be seeking alternative revenue sources through control of foreign assets. They explore whether this represents a fundamental shift toward predatory foreign policy rooted in domestic fiscal pressures rather than security concerns.
