Perhaps the armchair warriors here on FR who urge other Americans (because it’s never themselves, of course) into harm’s way from their Safe Spaces will pipe down now.

As long as the United States has the finest government that money can buy, the advantage will always be on the side of the interventionists.

“The neo-isolationists finally noticed Trump is not bringing the troops home.”


America First isn’t isolationism and Trump IS bringing the troops home as he can:

The United States has pulled out 2,000 troops from Afghanistan over the past year, leaving just over 12,000 in the country, according to the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan, The Washington Post reported Oct. 21.

The number of active-duty U.S. military troops stationed overseas has dipped below 200,000 for the first time in at least 60 years.
Total US Troop deployment overseas -
September 2017: 215,249
September 2018: 172,797
June 2019 (latest): 177,104
