Nothing wrong with being an Isolationist.

Much better than being a Neo-Con or Globalist, or Establishment type.

McConnell is barely a Republican and has repeatedly trash talked Trump and rolled out the red carpet for Dems like an assistant Democrat. Now he attacks Rand Paul as being an isolationist when Paul aligns with the Founders more than McConnell does.,

Rand Paul wanting oversight over 40 billion doesn’t make him an isolationist.

Aligning with the Founders, who repeatedly argued against long-term entanglements with foreign powers, isn’t being an isolationist.

The Founders argued in favor of alliances that were short-term, issue-specific, and in our interests, not unending warmongering with NATO which has went rogue in that it bowed before Odumba, as an example among other warmongering examples, and offensively attacked Libya when no NATO members were threatened and on unproven allegations that Gaddafi was going to kill 10k of his own people.

“Nothing wrong with being an Isolationist.”

Depends on how far you want to take it, doesn’t it?

If you’re a real isolationist that means you wouldn’t want any foreign allies, since they could drag you into foreign wars. And without any foreign allies, the country would be vulnerable to a hostile foreign alliance. So, I’d say that is something wrong with a strict adherence to isolationism.
