So where will this go?

Well, of course, the people who think the U.S.

No, it was about should the United States act in its own interest or should it subvert its own interests on behalf of a foreign power with a very effective lobby in Washington?

That's exactly what the debate is.

And the answer is, of course, no.

So the America First people are the people who just think the government should serve its own citizens, which, let me remind you, is the only legitimate rationale for representative government.

So you are morally bound, you're legally bound to represent your own people.

That's the only purpose of having a government in our country is to represent our people.

And if you're not doing that, you're not legitimate.

So they will win.

At the core, there may have been a point, but basically, it's buffoonery.
