He was a noted conservative who believed that American global expansion, both in North America and elsewhere, will only improve the socio-economic conditions of the occupied people.

He was advocate of intervention in Cuba and voted for the Spanish-American war. He was also a supporter of the United States invasion and occupation of Philippines.

Step-by-step explanation:

nmy opinion, Lodge's arguments strongly supported the need for the United States to acquire an imperialempire. The end of the 19th century in Europe was known as the imperialist era. During this period,many countries were expanding their territories to obtain new resources, ports, and commercial routes.
