Make America Great Again and get us removed from all global trade markets. Genius!
Well yeah, globalism is good. Diversity is good, it brings new ideas to the table.

Being anti it results in the rest of the world moving on without you.
Looks like the isolationists get what they want.

Half of voters, which is a third of citizens.

I just hope the rest of the world sees what right-wing fascism is really going to do them and they knock it off.

It feels like it's too late for us (US).
This, I hope they view us as an example of what not to do.

America can no longer be trusted as an international ally.
It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

I just hope they try to make a path to take all the brainpower that wants to leave. We have proven unreliable.
Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.

The problem is they can't trust us, even if a sane man becomes president again. Because we have proved it will be temporary. A democrat can't fix our reputation because in four or eight years everything will be ruined again.

It's distressing how many people want us to become an isolationist nation. That's good news for China, I guess.
"If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be."
Honestly can't even blame the world. If any ally of ours was acting so idiotically, we'd be talking about kicking them out of the club. Republican politicians actively want this nation to fall, and Democrat politicians would rather have their quiet status quo than actually do what needs to be done.

Makes sense that our 'left wing' is considered 'right wing' in other parts of the world.

We don't deserve the world's trust anymore. We've had more than enough chances.

We're being pointlessly antagonistic against our closest allies for no reason. We deserve to be abandoned by the world economy

At least 22% cant vote.
When I bring that up I'm talking about eligible voters. I don't know if that means they are registered to vote or not but I assume that means everyone whose allowed to vote.

The only path to redemption is to completely purge the rural hicks that ruined everything from the country and NEVER let them have power again...its like a family member that ruins everything for you, you either purge him like the virus he is or he drags you to hell with you...southern culture has to be utterly destroyed and every damn red neck has to feel shame for the rest of there damn lives because the red states have never been anything that brought America pride, only shame.

If this was possible, we would haven't right-wing fascism in the first place because people would just look at what it did in the past
^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

The last time America isolated itself from the world led to world war 2.
Is that the direction we steering to?
right now illegal immigration... next up, dividing americans and using labels to stir fear and shackle their freedoms. ...and here we go

...that feels like a somewhat simplistic (and fairly Americentric) explanation of events.
