In case you slept through it and missed it Isolationism went away a very long time ago.
What you want and what reality in the real world actually is are two vastly different things and never the twain shall meet.
Just how it is. Military expeditionism <> isolationism. Yeah, right.

India has a robust international trade, which is what non-isolationism is all about. Not exporting abortion, sodomy and feminism at the point of a gun.

You want isolationism try Tibet and North Korea for 2.

More of our rights have been taken away by the Supreme Court, than by "Russia, China, Iran, NK, etc" combined. Thank you for helping make my point. Now go back to hiding under your bed from the bogey man, and praying the Fed govt will protect you.

As a matter of fact, they are nuclear powers. But you don't see them sending mayhem and troops everywhere. India has a robust international trade, which is what non-isolationism is all about. Not exporting abortion, sodomy and feminism at the point of a gun. I think some of our folks are having trouble understanding that being isolationist doesn’t mean you cut yourself off from trade and you don’t necessarily cut off immigration. But we darn sure need to quit meddling in wars and conflicts. We’ve even gotten mixed up in Haiti and Africa, always making things worse. Look at what our Middle East and North African Arab interventions have caused. Now we have gotten a war going with Russia and NATO. These interventionist people can’t point to any positive results for the world brought about by us sending our troops overseas.

https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/ukraine-conflict-updatesRiley Bailey, Karolina Hird, Nicole Wolkov, Angelica Evans, George Barros, and Frederick W Kagan November 29, 2023, 7pm ET The apparent Russian failure to establish a cohesive command structure among forces defending on the east (left) bank of Kherson Oblast continues to degrade Russian morale and combat capabilities. The Russian “Dnepr” Grouping of Forces is increasingly comprised of disparate elements of recently transferred and degraded units and new formations, which may be contributing to this apparent lack of cohesive command structure. Russian authorities plan to extend criminal liability for crimes against the law on military service to participants in volunteer formations, a measure that would impact many irregular military formations and personnel on which the Russian military relies for manpower in Ukraine. Russian officials proposed laws that would restrict the actions of foreign citizens in Russia, likely to support continued efforts to coerce migrants into Russian military service. The NATO-Ukraine Council (NUC) met at the foreign minister-level for the first time on November 29 and discussed steps to increase weapons and ammunition production. Poland is reportedly considering sending military advisors to Finland in response to Russia's ongoing attempts to artificially create a migrant crisis on the Finnish-Russian border as part of a known Russian hybrid warfare tactic meant to destabilize NATO and the EU. The Russian Foreign Ministry (MFA) formally announced Russia’s termination of a nuclear reduction pact with Japan on November 28. Russia's efforts to generate combat power via recruitment from Central Asian countries may become a source of tension in Russia's relationship with its Central Asian neighbors. Adam Kadyrov, younger son of Chechen Republic Head Ramzan Kadyrov, will reportedly “oversee” the newly formed “Sheikh Mansur” volunteer battalion in a new unspecified position, possibly further indicating Ramzan Kadyrov’s desire for Adam to succeed him as head of Chechnya. Russian forces continued offensive operations along the Kupyansk-Svatove-Kreminna line, near Bakhmut, near Avdiivka, west and southwest of Donetsk City, the Donetsk-Zaporizhia Oblast border area, and in western Zaporizhia Oblast but did not make any confirmed advances. Russian Liberal Democratic Party (LDPR) Head and Duma Deputy Leonid Slutsky proposed a bill on November 28 that would grant war correspondents "combat veteran" status and associated social support benefits. Russian authorities continue efforts to erase Ukrainian culture and identity in occupied Ukraine.

No positive results from WW1 and WW2, you say? How is Haiti any worse than it’s been previously?

Kremlin now considering making any visitors to Russia sign a contract of allegiance to Russia which includes not speaking against the war in Ukraine or criticizing the Russian government, its policies or president Putin in any manner.
This effort is expected to be in force before the end of this December.
