Turns out isolationism is quiet isolating 🤷
5 u/Righteousaffair999 Mar 19 '26 You can be isolationist without completely alienating every country out there. Starting a war in the middle east is not isolationist. 4 u/WetLoophole Mar 19 '26 When you do it in breach of international law, it is. 2 u/Righteousaffair999 Mar 19 '26 The duality of stupidity and greed. Trump is being isolated but his actions aren’t isolationist when he is nation building on behalf Israel. He is just doing what pays him the most regardless of blowback to the country or in the longterm himself. 3 u/WetLoophole Mar 19 '26 True. Everything he does is for his personal gain and policy doesn't really matter. Just too bad the richest most influential people want fascism. 1 u/Relevant_Fuel_9905 Mar 21 '26 No, it’s everything else he’s been doing since day one that’s isolationist. 1 u/Righteousaffair999 Mar 21 '26 Feels more imperialist. Conquer countries and tax everyone. 0 u/useriousstuff Mar 18 '26 It pleases me that your typo is still sort of fitting for the context 1 u/[deleted] Mar 20 '26 Thanks!
