Why This Matters
Your National Security:
Intelligence sharing with allies helps prevent terrorist attacks and cyber threats—losing this cooperation makes America more vulnerable to security risks that could affect your community.
Your Economic Opportunities:
International isolation reduces American businesses' access to global markets, potentially costing jobs in export industries and reducing economic growth that affects your employment prospects.
Your Global Standing:
Understanding how Trump policies affect America's international relationships helps you evaluate whether "America First" actually makes the country stronger or weaker on the world stage.
Your Future Leadership:
These diplomatic breaks take decades to repair—decisions made today determine whether America maintains global influence or becomes increasingly isolated and irrelevant in world affairs.
