History shows that prior attempts at isolationism resulted in cracking the global economy and facilitating the rise of fascism. With the current global economic interconnections, isolating ourselves would disrupt trade relationships with countries like Russia and China. Moreover, isolationism jeopardizes fundamental values like democracy and freedom, leaving them vulnerable to erosion.
