Social media users have condemned merchandise promoting President Donald Trump's re-election campaign, saying it is reminiscent of Nazi imagery.
Available for both men and women, a 100-percent cotton T-shirt retailing for $30 carries the words "America First" above an image of an eagle looking to its left with spread out wings and its talons holding a circular version of the American flag.
Available on Trump's re-election campaign website, the product description says that it is "proudly made in the USA" and appeals to would-be buyers to show their support for re-electing the incumbent president, with the message: "Let everyone know who you are voting for in 2020.
"We finally have a president that puts America first. America is strong again, safe again, great again," it adds.

The group Bend the Arc: Jewish Action tweeted: "Trump & Pence are proudly displaying a Nazi-inspired shirt on their official campaign website. They are promoting genocidal imagery yet again—just days after President Trump retweeted a video of a supporter chanting 'white power.'"
PACE tweeted an image of the Trump logo with the Nazi imagery next to each other and wrote to his 24,000 followers: "Trump's new logo looks almost looks familiar. Where else have I seen that eagle style standing on a circle?" Among the almost 8,000 people who shared his tweet was the former director of the CIA, General Michael Hayden whose response was: "Holy sh*t."
The group of Republicans opposing Trump, The Lincoln Project, was equally succinct with its opinion of the T-Shirt, tweeting: "Come. On." Tom Nichols from the Lincoln project tweeted: "This is not some standard American eagle, this is a Trump graphics guy thinking he's being clever and trolling the world by saying "mayyyybe it's close."

They better burn all their US currency, there’s all kinds of eagles holding things, nazi like imagery.
LOL, I didn’t see your post, but as I said...we did indeed see that resemblance.
If I had to guess, I would say from Pink Floyd’s “The Wall” movie...
Do today’s “journalists” do anything but read social media?
It is the emblem from Pink Floyd’s “the wall”. It represents a “Nazi-like” fictitious regime.
My point in displaying that is that these people are so ignorant that some would take offense at that emblem. Dead serious. Trolling these folks is like taking candy from a baby.
I guess the Marines are the new Nazis? Their eagle stands on the world, therefor to day America tomorrow the World????? Newsweek F’n imbeciles,
(Another one I created way back when)
Yes, they also share “news” fed to them by the deep state and DNC.
But yeah, there is very little actual journalism going on today.
Have you seen any of the National Recovery Act marches? Just a little more goosestepping and they would have looked like Germany or Italy.
I just bought one
I imagine sales of the shirt have gone way up after the leftist freakout.

You may laugh, but the largest nationwide Nazi skinhead group actually adopted that as their symbol, so it’s already up on all those “hatewatch” sites.
