To the editor:
We have heard this expression numerous times, sounds good, eh?
I am sure many people may have been doing high fives, pumping arms first Yes! Yes! Yeah! Yeah!
Screaming stops, taking deep breaths, it is about time!
Now it is time to think clearly, hum? Gee, America first let me think, we are first in many categories, better get some help with this one!
Sorry I was a little slow, it is the new Riviera in Gaza, stupid!

Once we clean it all up, residents will have beautiful villas, affordable housing, shops, and cafes, and life will be great again.
Elon, will be the new Atlantic Ocean transportation Secretary, responsible for high-speed transit, for those who can afford it, first class on Space X, the Elon Concord. Those who wish to cruise over may use the USS MUSK.

Sail, row, train (swim) prepare for the Olympics, catch the next freighter, (do not get caught stowing away) you will be shark meat!
Okay, enough of the nonsense, let me get serious about what this all means.
The America First Committee, yes, it is true, was founded in 1940 by Robert Douglas Stuart Jr. son of the Quaker Oats Company, Co-Founder R. Douglas Stuart. (Political Party GOP)
They lobbied Congress against American involvement in foreign wars, at its peak they had 800,000 members, the largest antiwar organization.
They also were opposed to any intervention in WW-II including military aid to the allies, which generally involved disregarding global affairs and focusing on domestic policies of the United States. At that time the committee believed the U.S.A. was strong enough to defend itself.
Stop for a moment, I am not going beyond the Korean War which is technically considered a “conflict “and was the first major proxy war in the Cold War.
Can one imagine if The United States did not help Europe during WW II?
We would not be where we are today as a country, think about that!!
Finally, new vernacular (Bull Shit) or B.S. just added to the Trump bible during recent comments from Lindsey and the President.
Last thing, children are not welcome at the white house while the President speaks, Elon, suggest keeping your cute little 4-year-old boy out of that room, just a thought, eh? Where is the Nanny???
