Sean Strickland has made it known where his political beliefs lie. Strickland is a hardcore American who has a deep respect for the founding fathers of the nation. Moreover, he is also a champion of free speech as evident in his interactions in the real world and also on social media.

A US Airman recently set himself on fire for Palestine outside the Israeli embassy, and it made huge headlines. Nonetheless, US President Joe Biden announced that their support for Israel was ironclad. Sean Strickland also provided his take on the matter as he slammed the sacrificial act of the US Airman on X. This is what he tweeted.

The guy who lit himself on fire for Palestine is every wrong with this country. You're a disgrace to our nation and our founding fathers.

Strickland also tweeted that the first and foremost importance in America should be the nation itself. Moreover, he cited that open borders and over-taxation among other things should matter more to the Americans.

Strickland recently met Donald Trump and seemed impressed by the former US President. He even had a hilarious face-off with Trump, which went viral on social media. Funnily enough, Strickland recently expressed his interest in running for office as well.

Sean Strickland criticizes American involvement in external wars

At present, there are two ongoing wars in the world. One is between Russia and Ukraine, and the other is between Israel and Palestine. Both wars have caused a financial burden for the USA, who provide military aid for both Israel and Ukraine. Many in the US are not happy about it, and Sean Strickland is one of them.

Strickland made his disgust known with his recent tweet on X. In the tweet, he referenced that people labeled him as a hater of Palestine, Jews, and Ukraine due to his America-first beliefs. Moreover, he also stated that the money used to finance the wars was the hard-earned tax dollars of the Americans. Like many in the USA, Strickland did not want their dollars to go outside the nation.

Strickland’s views are the direct opposite of Belal Muhammad, a staunch supporter of Palestine. Strickland and Muhammad had clashed on social media for the same matter. Muhammad was born in the US to Palestinian immigrants and has not been to the conflict. Therefore, Strickland felt that Muhammad’s actions were unwarranted as he had no first-hand information about the conflict in the Middle East.
