Back in 2016, there were a few of his supporters on TOS who also proclaimed the free market doesn’t work
As far as isolationism, I don’t believe Trump is an isolationist. But it isn’t isolationism to question all this money going to Ukraine. And more and more Americans are also starting to question it.
Trump isn't just
questioning it, though. He's promised to end the war in 24 hours, which obviously means simply cutting Ukraine off immediately from any more support.
I’m not opposed to helping Ukraine in their fight. But it seems we have all this money to protect their border but not a penny for ours
First, we have
plenty of money to protect our border. But the current Administration is philosophically opposed to protecting the border, and
that's the real reason the border isn't secure - it has nothing to do with Ukraine. In 2020, Congress appropriated money for border security in 2021 that Biden refused to spend, and ordered an immediate halt in construction. That obviously happened long before there was a war in Ukraine. So the whole argument of saying "I don't support funding Ukraine because we should be spending money on securing our own borders first" ignores the reality that the two issues are unrelated. We can do one of them, both of them, or neither of them at the same time. Spending money on Ukraine is not the reason we're not securing our border.
However, if people really do believe that argument, then that would apply to
all foreign commitments. We shouldn't spend a penny on defending the borders of any other nation until we secure our own, and since that isn't going to happen as long as Biden is President, that means we're washing our hands of everything overseas.
