Subject: It’s Not That The US is Withdrawing from World
It’s that we are changing sides….

Yesterday it became clear that America hasn’t abandoned its allies so much as switched sides.

The Trump administration is trying to bully Canada, Denmark, and the NATO countries. It just held a summit with Russia even though we once provided a security assurance to Ukraine.

It is not the case that America is retreating into splendid isolationism. No, we are still taking sides in world affairs. But now we are holding hands with the Russians and the Chinese and opposing the countries to which we have long-standing treaty obligations.

MAGA- this is what you voted for, as well as nuclear proliferation as former allies rush to protect themselves from the depredations of dictatorial regimes- which now include us.
