The Trump administration dropped 44,000 bombs in its first year, a faster bombing pace than President Obama, who bombed more than President Bush. America has intervened militarily in other countries for decades against the council of founders like George Washington, who advised that America should "observe good faith and justice towards all nations; cultivate peace and harmony with all."

Economic Warfare

But the U.S. doesn't only project power across the globe through its massive military. It also weaponizes the U.S. dollar, using its economic dominance as both a carrot and a stick. 

The U.S. government showers billions of dollars in foreign aid to "friends." On the other hand, "enemies" can find themselves locked out of the global financial system, which the U.S. effectively controls using the dollar.

How exactly does the United States weaponize the dollar?

It utilizes the international payment system known as SWIFT.
