An expansionist candidate is a political figure or leader who advocates for policies aimed at increasing a country's territory, influence, or economic power. This can involve promoting military interventions, territorial acquisitions, or aggressive trade policies to enhance national interests. Such candidates often prioritize national growth and assertive foreign policies over diplomatic approaches. Their views can be polarizing, as they may lead to conflicts or tensions with other nations.
