The isolationist approach would be difficult in that the US would be faulted (demonized) for being rich, and not helping.
"Aid" would be seen as helping the potential enemy of another. Propoganda would read "US helps strengthen enemy."

The isolationist approach will work when the US is an impoverished country. Maybe then the liberals will be guilt free.
