Sheldon Richman on Trump's embrace of the early 20th century American President.
"The country burst with pride over America’s new world-power status. Well, not everyone. Some advocates of the old republicanism, with its pillars of individual liberty, free enterprise, and barely noticeable government objected. One of the best-known among them was William Graham Sumner, the Yale professor of sociology and laissez-faire liberal. In 1898 Sumner delivered a lecture at Yale with the shocking title “The Conquest of the United States by Spain.” After the stunning and quick military victory over the old Spanish empire, what could Sumner have meant?"
Bruh well what did Summer mean?!
Imagine if someone had said that the Soviet Union conquered California. What might they have meant?
Oh I get it now, cus yea that happened.

McKinley put the US on the path to Empire. Before that we were only a problem to our neighbors. After McKinley got his way, we were a problem to Europe, the Philippines, Cuba and a host of others. Perhaps the article was referring to Trump wanting to buy Greenland and invite the Canadians into the federation. Those are offers and not wars.
