its because of the past, where actual racists used the banner of nationalism in conjunction with their hate of "inferior" people. in many cases, ones nationality & ethnicity are one & the same. america is exception to this.
the problem is that this is totally different than trumpism, which is mostly an economic patriotism.
the liberals love to conflate "america first" with those racists of the past. Newnik had some eloquent posts combining trump with charles lindberghs nazi USA movement bullshit.
thats how libs keep power, by pretending its still the pre 1960s today. only voters in california & NY drink the dumb liberal cool aid. hilary got her clock cleaned where CNN is considered bullshit, as in, over 2000 counties across the country!
