When did globalism stop being popular?

1. Not every reader lives in the USA

2. In my observation (not in the USA) in the last years (and also months/weeks) it has rather been a strong veering round back and forth of "globalism is good" vs "globalism is bad" with no clear observable direction at which side the pendulum will stop.

Globalism is not a “was” by any stretch of the imagination inside or outside of the US.

Yeah, a percentage of the U.S. Republican Party are isolationist, that doesn’t make globalism 19th century-style dead. Jesus fucking christballs.
