The Washington Post’s Max Boot on Monday called out Donald Trump’s supporters for their staunch defense of all of his foreign policies, even when they appear to contradict the president’s “America First” mantra that they so vocally applaud.

The conservative columnist ― in an essay titled “Trump’s incoherent foreign policy defies explanation” ― described the president’s approach to foreign affairs as “often self-contradictory” and argued that his pronouncements are “so unexpected and disconnected from reality that they leave foreign policy scholars, and foreign leaders, bewildered.”

But, Boot noted, most “MAGA loyalists will go wherever Trump leads,” adding that many “actually seem to appreciate the discordant combination of Trump mediating conflicts while simultaneously saber-rattling.”
