you see people, when the enemies are faced with nationalism

they cower

"America is losing influence **bad**....."

"America **bad** me happy they lose influence."

Of course could also be any random Eurocuck...

Is what he said not true though? Trump pushing his hardcore nationalist and isolationist agenda surely has hurt America on the world stage.

Something which will ultimately negatively impact the entire Western world?

the world wants you to think we need them

we dont

besides they want us to keep taking in immigrants and shiz. and make bad trade deals

so what if we dont have cheap as dirt shitty chinese products dude

But you do, since you like to trade with them on favourable terms, you like the intelligence they provide, the bases they allow you to have, the power you're able to project because of your cooperation with them. You're risking throwing all that away, for no gain.

dont care

USA USA

I don't understand why you would want to do something like that? I can't see any positive gain from doing so.

oh we will still have a massive military

and lots of things

but its time to put america first

that doesnt mean other things arent second and third

Sure, but less cooperation about the world and less bases which you can use to project power.

Trade accounts for 12-14% of USGDP. OF that 2/3rds are Canada and Mexico. We really don't need most of the world they need us. Because 90% of global trade is maritime and we own the Atlantic and Pacific.

Which means that large military will become useless.

2008 is proof that you do, need the rest of the world. As things that impact them also hurt you.

instead of asking what the ethical thing to do or whatever. we ask what is good for our nation, put america and americans first dewd.

and exactly what eternal said

Your imports and exports would be negatively impacted, which will directly hurt you.

you just dont realize. we hvae nearly 3.6 million square miles of beautiful land

If you continue to alienate allies, they won't cooperate with you, which means no bases, no intelligence and no help from them.

we get nearly all of our oil from natural gas now

Which will hurt your ability to project power around the world.

who cares

dont care

USA FIRST FOOL

You have 260 Billion in imports from other countries.

besides the intelligence agencies are corrupt

we dont need the rest of the world

No, sorry that figure was wrong. It's 3.1 Trillion dollars of imports. Per year.

they need us bruh

pfffttt

And you export 2.5 trillion dollars.

you act as if it will all stop

you are being retarded
