I think the OC was speaking more figuratively.

Another more recent example might be the US throwing its weight around in the South China Sea - thus trying to protect it interests (and the dollar).

I’m pretty sure the only reason the USA is in the SCS at all is because of the amount of weight being thrown around by the PRC (to the detriment of USA allies Vietnam and Philippines).
