‘America’ doesn’t exist for White people so there’s not reason for White people to support ‘American interests’ in any form anywhere, including on the continent of North America.
America intended from the beginning to be a commercial empire, with a ruling class that controlled the country in their interests.
The quote from Washington bears this out completely. He talks about commercial interests, not racial interests.
The instant there was any rejection of taxation as an assertion of populist autarky in the Whiskey Rebellion and later Shaye’s Rebellion. In the former, Washington sent troops to stomp on ordinary Whites and murder the ring-leaders.
America was never a White ethnostate. There has never been any concern for the well-being of the common White person, especially the White man.
The only time the American state cares about the health of White men is assessing them prior to shipping them out to die in some war to fatten the pockets of the White ruling class.
