Trade adviser ascends in Trump White House
The Hill ^ | 03/11/18 | Niv Elis

One must only watch a few minutes of Peter Navarro’s economic hypernationalist film “Death By China” to understand why President Trump has an affinity for the man.

In the movie’s opening scenes, a flag-painted cutout of the United States tumbles to the ground and is brutally stabbed with a knife.

As the map gushes blood, the knife’s handle is revealed to resemble Chinese currency, and its blade is labeled “Made in China.”

"Death By China: How America Lost Its Manufacturing Base"

Over the years, those who 'run the show' (politicians, economists, special interests, et. al) have been successful in establishing their agendas by their defining narratives and corruption of nomenclature.

An obvious example is to label someone who disagrees with unrestricted immigration, spending more money on schools and social programs, quotas, etc, as racists, bigots, xenophobes, homophobes, Islamaphobes, and on and on.

Globalists have done this by making such words as 'nationalism' and 'isolationism' and others to tar their opposition as backwards, behind-the-times, and worse, dangerous.

There is nothing wrong with being proud of your nation.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to see your nation and your people be their best.

There is nothing wrong in putting the interests of your nation first.

We can no longer allow champions of globalism to use language to cut us down, marginalize us, and silence us.

Trump, by fighting back against the media and special interests, has proven fighting back is a winning strategy.

When someone calls you a nationalist in disdain, tell them you're proud to put America First.

The time is now. Fight back and win.

It’s funny watching these people spin around like tops because we actually have a President looking out for the country’s interests.

This article would have gotten much more attention had the headline not been bland.

It's a major topic hidden in a seemingly innocuous banner.

I'm sure many people are annoyed at how the left has corrupted the dialog and shaped the narrative for their agenda.

I could have punched it up to get hundreds of hits but there's a rule about not altering headlines.
