When I read this, the warning bells went off in my white-haired little head! I was there.
Trump did not "bellow!" nor is "America First" a bad idea. It goes right along with MAGA with "Great" being the operative word. I grew up in an America that was great in the sense that Alexi de Tocqueville described it in 1835–40; "Great," because it was "Good."
>>Trump did not “bellow!” nor is “America First” a bad idea.
I recall Barack Hussein Obama saying (and carrying through) that America needed to be taken down a couple of pegs.
Americans couldn’t just go about living how they want with air conditioning and driving wherever they want to go in their own gas powered vehicles.
I seem to recall statements on record about not being a leader in other areas as well.
I know he discussed no more “interference” in other nations and yet he overthrew Momar Gaddafi who wasn’t even a threat to us.
“When Donald Trump bellowed “America First!”...

I didn’t read past the first three words; “Populists and Autocrats”. Both are used by the left as pejoratives to discredit the right.
A Populist is a finger-to-the-wind politician, lacking any principles or ethical purpose other than to get elected. An Autocrat is an all powerful dictator.
The fact that this “journalist” describes Trump this way is all we need to know. The rest of the piece is total garbage, I assume.
Me too - Trump never bellows. He is incredibly soft spoken. The power in what he says is in his words.
