    Good args, no critique. I think where I see hypicrisy useful is with some part of centre and left of centre voters who do believe in the concept of fairness and who believe in the propaganda that US interventions are about helping others - e.g. freeing some people from opressive regime through oil embargo.

      Yeah, that could work there, but then again, when talking to someone like that, you are preaching to the choir already anyway, so it hardly matters what exact terms you use. They will very likely agree with you that Trump is an asshat without principles or understanding of anything but how to manufacture rage.
