Sen. Daines to Newsmax: Trump Putting American Interests First

By    |   Tuesday, 28 January 2025 11:30 AM EST

President Donald Trump thinks first and foremost about protecting the American people, Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., told Newsmax Tuesday.

Daines said Trump's interest in acquiring Greenland is about putting the interests of Americans first.

"Greenland is a very strategic part of that geography," Daines said on "National Report." "The northernmost military installation that we have for the United States is in Greenland, the Thule Base. It's a very important part of the early missile detection systems. I'm grateful that President Trump puts American interests first. And I'm glad to see the Europeans and the Danish are taking his conversations seriously."

The Montana senator said Trump's first week in office is the leadership the American people were yearning for.

"It feels a lot like the days when Ronald Reagan took office, leading with peace through strength without stuttering his instincts. He moved quickly as a great executive, leading the executive branch as our president does," Daines said. "It goes back to President Trump's principles and his instincts of protecting America. America first. It's hard to believe it's just been a week since he's been in office. I sleep better at night knowing when I do wake up, President Trump is in office."
