Senate Republican allies of President-elect Donald Trump have expressed their support for his strategic interests in gaining control of the Panama Canal, Greenland, and even Canada. While acknowledging uncertainty about the seriousness of Trump's intentions, they have shared their perspectives on these potential endeavors.
Senator Kevin Cramer of North Dakota believes that Trump is not joking about his interest in the Panama Canal and the implications of ceding control. However, he admits uncertainty about the feasibility of regaining control and the necessary steps to achieve it. Cramer also mentioned the strategic value of Greenland but emphasized that military intervention should not be considered.
