I am going to going even further than you and suggest if you are an American do not support America First, that means you instead support America Last.

If you believe that, you should think about what other countries and groups support those kinds of things, and what kind of company supporting terrorist groups puts you in.

No, there isn't a legitimate reason not to want America First.

Yes, it's important we call out anyone and stand against people who want to tear down America and fully pursue all applicable laws that apply to this destructive behavior.

Pretty sure it was an attempt at satire or reductio ad absurdem.

It was the exact same political absurdist talking point, just swapping "DEI" for "America First". Come on.

Those things are barely related to each other. You are pretty deep inside your leftie bubble to think what you think.

America first I assume now means “South America First” in regard to financially bailing out Argentina in exchange for political favors.

Yes, better than getting nothing in return for those billions by giving them out to warlords in Africa for luxury cars and airplanes... I mean "aid"

lol, there are so many impeachment-worthy scandals it is hard to keep track of. I completely forgot about the free airplane.

Nixon is rolling in his grave with envy. He has to resign over a parking ticket by comparison.

Almost hourly, I am reminded that Jimmy Carter had to put his unprofitable inherited peanut farm in a blind trust.
