>yeah the hostility started recently with trump and his ilk - fighting for nationalism of a bygone era.

It definitely didn't start with Trump, it just became policy under him.

Trump would never have had a chance if Americans didn't already blame immigrants for the effects of neoliberalism rather than the billionaires who put it into practice, and if the rural white populace weren't already afraid losing the cultural power of their demographic majority and identity. People forget how much of a joke candidate he was until racists took him seriously.

>if you can afford it - the US has excellent healthcare

If you can afford it, anywhere has excellent healthcare.

> If you can afford it, anywhere has excellent healthcare.

I don't think so, judging by the many heads of state and other filthy rich people choosing to get healthcare in the West instead of their local countries.
