Nationalism is the antidote. And you are parsing words. Patriotism is loyalty to your nation first. Nationalism is the same concept. Nationalism doesn’t mean you are running around screwing other nations, though that is what people are trying to push on us.
American simply means American interests come first for Americans...nothing else. Conversely, Saudi interests come first for a Saudi. Deals are made when they are mutually beneficial.
I want nationalism.
The left has made nationalism a dirty word. It isn’t.
And the Internet came of age and Americans started talking. A giant 24/7 open town hall meeting not controlled by big corrupt media. It's why the globalist now see the Internet and freedom of speech, as a threat want to control it and regulate it.
They're big problem came along with the Internet and Trump. A smart, independent non-insider with big $ who wasn't owned by them and couldn't be pushed around by them.
In addition, Trumps welded bond with tens of millions his supporters is historic and has not been seen in modern American history. You’d have to dial back to the founders to see this level of relationship between a leader and the people.
They have real big problem here. They're going to lose big.
I think the two words mean the exact same thing, but one of the words almost nobody can disagree with, whereas the other word has been blamed for some of the worst things in history. Seems wise to go with the former.
