I'd rather America lean non-interventionist but don't believe the theory there are only two camps here.

Nationalist -- we can accomplish more by being a shining example of prosperity and equality that other countries can choose to emulate or not.

So, in your narrow two-camp view I guess Trump can't be considered a Patriot as he put himself ahead of America by selling Chinese made goods.

That's as weak and pathetic an argument that could be offered. Where were you when Hillary was selling out the State Dept. ?

Ah, the typical defense of their hero from a Trumpie: Hillary! Hillary! Hillary!

Where were you when Donny was telling his outright lies like "thousands and thousands" celebrating the 9/11 attacks in the streets of Jersey City?

This is why the greatest moments in world history happened directly due to Globalism, The Meiji Restoration, The Renaissance, The Protestant Reformation, The Inudstrial Revolution the development of most major modern day Languages and cultures.

I'd like to know if these days there's actually a universally accepted definition of 'globalist'?

It seems if you're an American employer employing American workers to make products you market around the world you're a Patriot! but if you're say an Italian employer employing Italians to make products that are marketed in America you're a Globalist!

I like Texas and have found Texans to be very friendly whenever I am there (I hunt hogs there a couple of times a year). However, I was amused to hear Robert Duval's character in the movie "Geronimo" refer to Texans as "the lowest form of white man".
