It’s funny how the America First, America Only crowd is cheering on this shameless regime change whose ultimate goal isn’t about drugs or democracy, but getting access to oil and minerals to make the Trump family richer.
And that’s so why there is a lack of effort to justify it. The right has been compromised and will support anything the party does - deporting citizens, invading countries, making things unaffordable with tariffs.

Is it?
Yes it is, they might put out words to the contrary but their actions will be blind support. I hope I'm wrong about that.
I have seen many people on X who have a profile saying America First or America Only or both post messages supporting the boat strikes or “thanking” Hegseth or whatever. Among big influencers - Matt Walsh, Benny Johnson, others have all supported the narrative in one form or the other. For example Johnson pushed the conspiracy theory that Venezuela rigs elections in America. Often they use dishonest language to shill their support for what’s going on - “we don’t want a new war but here’s ten reasons why Venezuela is bad”
Odds are they are bot accounts on X and not real people. Also, don’t forget Benny Johnson and other influencers were getting payed by Russia to push out these narratives. https://apnews.com/article/russian-interference-presidential...
Ancient wisdom: Anything before the word “but” is bullshit.
