The President said at a rally that he is a nationalist, not a globalist. That is true of Republicans in general. The left has run with it.
The word ‘nationalist’ is now a ‘dog whistle’ for racism according to the Democratic media. The dictionary defines nationalism as patriotism, but the left hates that word too. The thought police say the name is no longer allowed.

The Importance of Prayer: How a Christian Gold Company Stands Out by Defending Americans’ Retirement
Can anyone say Orwellian?
The PC culture is very Marxist, it silences opposing opinions, forces groupthink, and it is disliked by the majority of Americans. It’s wholly unAmerican.
Some words and expressions should be avoided. Of that, there is little doubt, but this PC nonsense has gone way too far. Yesterday, Megyn Kelly said on air that Halloween costumes in blackface shouldn’t be condemned, which was a dumb thing to say. Blackface is very insulting and was used to mock blacks, especially during the Vaudeville error.
However, that doesn’t mean the extremes on the other end are okay.
The NY Times claims ‘nationalism’ holds connotation of fascism and Nazism. Says who? Them? Trump didn’t say he was a National Socialist, he said he’s not a globalist and he’s patriotic.
Idiot leftist Colbert was “appalled” and tweeted his displeasure and referenced white supremacists [Democrats] who were in the KKK, emphasizing that they were ‘white nationalists’ as if it were the same thing.
“You know why you’re not supposed to use that word? Because it’s the second half of ‘white nationalist.’ Chopping off the first word doesn’t change what it means in our minds. ‘Oh look, look, I’m a klux klan, I have no idea which one! Don’t judge me. There’s all kinds of klux klans.’” — STEPHEN COLBERT
The left wants to silence the right. It’s as simple as that. You must be a globalist, period.

Heck, I am a Trumpist Nationalist and proud to be so.
This is the way the left silences the right. It tries to destroy our ability to communicate our ideas. This could account for the reason the left has no plan and no agenda. If they were to verbalize it, they would have to use words that trigger some of their group.
This is ridiculous. We on the right just need to keep doing what we are doing and quit worrying about how the left feels about the words we use.
A “white nationalist” is unAmerican and unPatriotic by their own admission. The modern thinking is the desire to Split the country into its racial parts. It could be called the “new separate but equal”. Of course there are those who see the word “nation” and equate “race” solely with it. A “Nationalist” has its focus on “Nation” and Not “race”. It is the “nation” that is Superior and not the race. Therefore the use of Nationalist has nothing to do with the modern “white separatists”.
A nation without self interest is doomed, nationalism is mandated by the word of God, the tower of Babel was destroyed, globalism is internationalism leadership through the evil United Nations.
Right on, Richmond!! Everything you wrote is on the money:)
