1 They're not paying attention. Trump is 'cutting' the Gordian Knot of interdependency of the post WW2 order invoking [to steal someone else's phrase] a fundamental change.

3 Dere takin' our furrin' aid! is the same argument used against our alliance with Israel. Maybe back off from this dangerous rhetoric.
We're America. We do the heavy lifting because nobody else can. Moreover this gives us enormous power in the world to affect events like nobody else.
We basically control the world with gigantic bribes, i.e. foreign aid.
It's much, much cheaper than fighting some of these countries, which are terrifying when they're angry.
Look at what Israel did to Gaza. you really want to be on the wrong side of them? A few billion a year is pocket change.
Don't forget: Mess with Jews and you lose.

4 Look at what Israel did to Gaza. you really want to be on the wrong side of them?

Ohfergawdsake, Israel is not going to attack America! Never have they ever threatened to do so. Nor will Israel be taking any money from America in a few years, at which point we can decide if we want to continue giving anything at all to Egyot and Jordan — since both have been paid off in balance with Israel for signing peace treaties. But if Israel has decided to spare the American pocket, why should the other two continue to get anything?
