What can you say but opportunist?
"They don't want power. They want to endlessly podcast about power."
For good and bad, the world was on demographic track for a Long American Century.
At current growth, fertility, & immigration levels: The US would be the ONLY world power with exponential total GDP growth by 2100.
If Trump ends birthright citizenship, he ends that trajectory.
"America First" types ignore how immigration makes the USA stronger: It makes us bigger!
Remember when Japan was going to take over the world? Japan never stopped growing more productive -- it just stopped growing more populous.
Without immigration, the US would be shrinking.
All the world's geniuses want to move here.
Trumpists would turn them away -- and lower innovation, lower growth, lower population, weaken the USA -- all to please mediocre White racists that can't intellectually compete.
Trumpists are genuinely too stupid to run an empire.
