Breitbart News Executive Chairman and former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon says the United States is a nation of citizens and not a nation of immigrants in Keith Kofflers new book titled Bannon: Always the Rebel. In the book, Bannon shoots down a generational campaign by Washington, D.C. politicians and the open borders and cheap labor lobby that describes the founding of America as one based on a melting pot of immigrants.
Bannon says the U.S. is founded on its citizens, and therefore the needs of its citizens should come before those of foreign nations and foreign nationals.
Koffler details in the book:
Bannon says, Were a nation of citizens; were not a nation of immigrants, correcting what he believes is a common misperception. So now we have to start to act like citizens come first. All policy should be oriented to making the working people in this country and the middle class in this country have a better shot at success. And weve gotten away from that. What weve done is brought in huge global competition for their jobs, for their schools. Bannon, on his Breitbart radio show, interviewed Trump on November 19, 2015. At the time, Trump was more liberal on immigration than Bannon was, making the case that the United States should try to keep talented foreign-born students. When somebody is going to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Penn, Stanford, all the greats, and they graduate, and not only graduate, but do great, and we throw them out of the country, and they cant get back in, I think thats terrible. Weve got to be able to keep great people in the country. Trump said. We have to be careful of that, Steve. You know, we have to keep our talented people in this country.

I’m going to use Bannon’s line. From now on,when my Libtard friends say, ‘we are a nation of immigrants’, I’ll say ‘we’re a nation citizens’..
Ditto!
Newer tagline
Bannon 2024.
Testing
Maybe try it without the apostrophes/contractions.
I am NOT a citizen of the world, I am a citizen of the USA and if you don’t like that FU.
Bannon is our Spartagus.
Great line.
So true.
Immigrants legally enter the melting pot and presto...citizens.
If people love their nation of origin MORE than they love the country the left, well, maybe they shouldn’t have left.
If Spartacus was an asparagus.
:)
Thank you, Bannon.
He’d be Spartabaga if he was a rutabaga.
