Episode 16 - The Imperial Presidency - Trump's Potential Plans for Mexico, Panama, Greenland, and Canada

In this episode, recorded on February 12, Chelsey G and Andrew Gavin Marshall follow their previous episode on 'The Authoritarian Presidency' by expanding into the subject of Trump's 'Imperial Presidency' with its sights set on Mexico, Panama, Greenland, and Canada. We take a look at Trump's potential military options in Mexico, his threats to retake Panama, his plan to take Greenland, and his threats to annex Canada, which (as Canadians) we spend a great deal of time on, looking at the evolution of threats and game out some scenarios for how this might happen. Recorded three weeks prior to the current tariffs and trade war unleashed by the United States against Canada and Mexico, this episode takes a slightly longer-term focus that is more relevant than ever.
