There are a lot of bullies (NK, Iran, Russia, China). It is not possible to meddle our way in it. This is and has been the classic liberal stance since the Cold War and the Vietnam War protests. The problem is that progressives of today are unrecognizable from the classic liberals, in the exact same fashion as the right wing has shown all of their cards of American exceptionalism and Trumpism. One side contradicts itself when it wants to meddle in wars and when it doesn't. The other side is apologetic about megalomaniac that Putin is. We need to get back to basics of building exceptional defense, innovating and stop being a world police.
