Answer: It meant a paradoxal situation because the proper foundation of the USA was an anti-imperialist and anti-colonial act. Foundation of the USA was an emancipation against British imperialism. But already in 1840s USA started practicing imperialist policy toward Mexico (Texas) and Central America. It was a paradox. Spanish American war was sort of a culmination of this kind of policy.
Explanation: One of the explanations is a Social Darwinism which was very fashionable at that time and its perspective was applied not only to societies and races but also to history.

The same perspective followed Americans (Theodor Roosevelt).

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), also known as Napoleon I, was a French military leader and emperor who conquered much of Europe in the early 19th century.

Another factor that contributed to the U.S. decision to go to war against Spain in 1898, apart from the explosion on the USS Maine and yellow journalism, was the intention of the American government to protect U.S. investments in Cuba.
Explanation:
The Spanish-American War was a war the United States fought alongside the Cuban rebels against Spain in 1898, to liberate Cuba from Spanish control. The revolution in Cuba began in 1895, and American investment institutions suffered heavy losses. The United States underlined Cuba's strategic importance for the project to build a canal in Central America between the two oceans. The United States demanded Spain to evacuate the island and recognize its independence, but the European power denied to do so, and tensions escalated between both sides.
The war between the United States and Spain erupted in 1898. It led to a series of Spanish defeats that resulted in the United States becoming a major colonial power and a world power, while Spain's loss of its colonies in America and the Pacific made it became a second-class power.
This conflict is commonly known in Spain as the Cuban War or Disaster 98, while in Cuba it is called the Spanish-Cuban-North American War.
Its initial results were from the Spanish side the loss of the island of Cuba, which we call for an independent republic, but remained under the tutelage of the United States. So do Puerto Rico, the Philippines and Guam, which have become independent colonies of the United States. The American occupation of the Philippines led to the outbreak of the Philippine-American War (1899 - 1902).
