> Focusing American power on its own hemisphere would allow Trump, in other words, to square many circles: to make America great again by making America’s imperial footprint smaller, to reduce the tax burden on the rich by cutting into the apparatus that a global imperium required.
So, (IMO) the idea is ceding Europe to Putin (long the plan, which included sabotaging NATO), and the rest of Asia (and presumably Africa) to Xi, cutting the defense budget and giving most of it (and education and health care funds) to the rich in the form of tax cuts.
