> authoritarian regimes that don’t have American interests at heart, are inherently un-American and unworthy of American support

Foreign democracies don’t have American interests at heart. Should we cut trade ties with Germany as a result?

Our power comes from trade. Backing up into ideological autarky would be self defeating. Similarly, asking individual companies to stop trading with countries their competitors may legally trade with is dumb.

Convince your fellow voters to put on sensible, targeted tariffs and sanctions. Or accept that commerce plows wider fields than ideology.
