    He’s not pushing “America First”. He’s just saying “America First”. He has no intention, should he somehow come to power again, on acting on it. He won’t act meaningfully on anything he says.

    We know this because this has happened before. He ran on hating brown people and queer people, but when he became president in spite of the fact that he got significantly fewer votes than his opponent, the only meaningful thing he did was massively increase the deficit and give that money to rich people, to the tune of twenty thousand dollars from every man, woman, and child in the country. And also sell state secrets to comparatively minor regional powers in the east. And we mustn’t forget the million-plus excess deaths he presided over because he seems to legitimately think that things he doesn’t understand can’t be understood so just say whatever and let the corpses fall where they will.

    The news outlets who report on this shit know this, but as far as I can tell they don’t want to report on any of it because they’re worried idiots will be mad at them. We need a better way, but before we can have a better way, we need to smite this movement. Nothing good can possibly come of it for anybody but Trump himself. Even his followers only stand to lose.

    I think we’ve missed the point. “America first” is self referential for him. If a job he needs done can be done cheaper, that’s the right thing to do; that’s his America, and he’s the top American (because anyone who thinks otherwise is a criminal or demon, or doesn’t count for any other reason he comes up with on the fly). So if it gets him ahead, that’s by definition “American.”
