Aren't they pretending to believe we're all Republicans doing a three year long larp as leftists?
That's their latest thing yeah. "Well see you both agree with Republican ideas of isolationism and therefore you must ACTUALLY be right wing."
Libs plz. We believe in US isolationism because we want the US to stop fucking around with the rest of the world and leave the rest of the world alone to figure itself out without being bombed and coerced into doing what the US wants the world to do. The right believes in US isolationism because they're nationalists who believe the US should only help ourselves and should never help anyone outside our borders. We're literally polar opposites. There is no overlap in those 2 viewpoints.
When we say "isolationism" we mean "quarantine"...
Republicans, famous isolationists who opposed the Iraq War
The paleocons did and still do favor isolationism. There are multiple tendencies on the right as on the left
im not so much a us isolationist but more so i want the usa to stop doing things overseas on account that it stops existing altogether
Is it isolationism if you want to isolate the US to a place outside of this mortal coil?

:Oprah:
I knew it wasn't going to be long before they started calling us MAGA Communists. They can't fathom people who can laugh at Trump and not be completly deranged over him destroying DEMOCRACY ™ so we have to secretly be supporting him.
How can Trump destroy what never existed? They treat the government and it's institutions like some sacred cow, the world would be better off if the US balkanized and disintegrated into an impotent power.
It's almost as if there was no democracy to begin with

We will see coping mechanisms in the coming days that we cannot even imagine now.
