America First may not be what you think.

Beyond the obvious reason for the motto “America First” become popular, there are many reasons to believe that Trump is also referring to the powerful and influential political non-interventionist group American First Committee (AFC). Establish in 1940, the AFC was organized to oppose the American involvement in WW2 by challenging Roosevelt’s deceptive campaign. The committee with 800K members arose against the intervention accordingly with 4 principles:

• The United States must build an impregnable defense for America 
• No foreign power, nor group of powers, can successfully attack a prepared America
 • American democracy can be preserved only by keeping out of the European war. 
• “Aid short of war” weakens national defense at home and threatens to involve America in war abroad.

No wonder if you have found “coincidences” with Trump’s political views and government actions.

Trump wants NATO dismantled.
