WASHINGTON, Dec 5 (Reuters) -- The United States will reassert its dominance in the Western Hemisphere, build military strength in the Indo-Pacific, and possibly reassess its relationship with Europe, President Donald Trump said on Friday in a sweeping strategy document that seeks to reframe the country's role in the world. The National Security Strategy, released overnight, described Trump's vision as one of "flexible realism" and argued that the U.S. should revive the 19th century Monroe Doctrine, which declared the Western Hemisphere to be Washington's zone of influence. It also warned that Europe faces "civilizational erasure" and must change course.

Good thing France didn't have this kind of isolationist doctrine 1776... or America would not exist.

"The United States will reassert its dominance in the Western Hemisphere"

Trump might be able to assert military dominance.

But military dominance is not how dominance works in the 21st century.

Economic dominance is how dominance works in the 21st century.

And Trump is an economic failure.

He should've just sent them a mean meme, that seems to scare them more than anything these days.
