And sadly I believe that a lot of Americans would prefer isolationism and are fine with this, as they’d get to cut military spending.

Some at least pretend to. “If we didn’t have to police the world, we could save so much on military spending, Europe should get its’ own shit together”
And while I as an European agree about the last part, I still think NATO is a beneficial alliance to everyone involved.
