The man without a nation fears nationalism.

As opposed to the “crude sort of totalitarianism” that is being uprooted in the country.

Go away, obama. We don’t want to look at you or listen to you anymore. We don’t care about your foolish 1960s ideas. (Btw most adults gave up on that utopia stuff a long time ago idiot!) Nobody even likes you anymore. Nobody thinks you’re cool any longer. Not even stupid liberals .

I am afraid that he will not have the self discipline or class to keep his mouth shut after he walks off of the stage in January.

He will be so angry to see President Trump bringing the country back to productivity and success! Obama’s plan was to bring America down so far that the government was the only place it could turn to. Aka, socialism...his dream!

Obama will not stay quiet and will try to stir up the communities with his rhetoric, community activist that he is.

He is right. We should settle for nothing less than highly refined nationalism.

If Obama didn’t see this coming, he just wasn’t looking.

In our country’s recent history we’ve celebrated diversity in our population as if it were a good thing. However, one look at world history will show you that no country with a diverse population of different races, languages, and religion has long survived.

Countries don’t naturally form with a diverse population, and when in the past they’ve occurred it’s usually been as a result of armed conquest. These unnaturally formed countries have either melded together into a single population made up of one mixed race with one language and one religion or they’ve come apart, and they’ve usually come apart with extreme violence. The longer these diverse populations were forced to coexist with one another without mixing and becoming one, the more the hatred grew among them and the more violently they broke apart, but break apart they did, or genocide has settled the issue once and for all.

Why is this and why can’t we all just get along? The truth of the matter is that we (the human race) just aren’t as civilized as we would like to think we are. Our species, Homo sapiens sapiens, isn’t that long “out of the trees” and the veneer of civilization is very thin, to non-existent, upon us all. We’re all carrying the genes that got us here and some of those genes carry a very basic survival instinct that has allowed us to survive thus far.

This most basic of all survival instincts is self preservation and it’s the one that warns us to be very wary of those who are different than us, our family, and our tribe. Those who possessed this survival instinct survived and reproduced, and those who had no fear/distrust of strangers didn’t survive. Over the years, this survival instinct has been referred to as tribalism, nationalism, nativism, ethnocentrism, racism, and various other isms, but it’s an inborn instinct carried in our genes whether we like it or not.

America is the greatest country in the history of the world - not only military greatness but also the moral greatness of our Constitution. Failing to honor and celebrate that greatness would be either foolish or evil (or for democrats, both). There is nothing crude about American nationalism. That’s just common sense.

It sure was good to hear from that Eliot guy today that denounced Trump again today saying that the transition team was angry and saying We Won type stuff. Sound’s like Trump & team aren’t gonna back down. And why should they. They and their voters Won with no help from MSM or RINOS or corporate interests
