Again, this is what America First is all about. We're no longer going to be the Leader of the Free World, we're no longer going to be exceptional

That’s a maximalist statement and one that’s not really backed up by how things are unfolding, sorry.

The current world trajectory was unsustainable. Completely.

I get that it’s great for American popularity when a democrat is in office and we throw all sorts of largesse around. Makes us feel good about ourselves and it spares Brussels from having to make adult decision about how to run the continent.

But the Euro ideal of six weeks vacation a year, a house in the Riveria, retiring at 50 and having free healthcare is awesome. Who doesn’t want that? All it requires is a big sugar daddy across the pond. Welp, it all carries a bill and that bill is now due.

I understand everything you’re saying. The problem with it is that we can’t afford it anymore. That’s the reality.
