The Memo: Nationalists gain upper hand in Trump’s White House
The Hill ^ | 04/25/18 | Niall Stanage

The America Firsters are on the rise.

That’s the lesson some people in President Trump’s world are drawing from recent personnel moves.

In this telling, the populists and nationalists who powered Trump’s election are regaining a foothold as more establishment-friendly figures are marginalized.

But even as those developments please some of Trump’s most enthusiastic backers, they unnerve critics who fear what the president might do in the absence of more measured advice.

High-profile names have exited in recent months, including former national security adviser H.R. McMaster and former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

And now, two less-famous names are causing a major stir among those within Trump’s orbit.

Shouldn’t nationalists have the “upper hand” in every White House?

If they’re not nationalists then they certainly don’t belong there.

We have had globalists running our government for the benefit of everyone except the citizens since Reagan left office.
FOUR Presidents in a row, two of each party, have been implementing a bipartisan policy designed to steal the country from the citizens.

>>The America Firsters are on the rise.

More winning! God gave America a continent, then the Reformation, and then the best and brightest of Europe so we could isolate ourselves from the Old World

It is about f'n time.

The snakes that tried to undermine President Trumps agenda 'for the good of the country' should be ancient history by now.

MAGA Mr. President.

The previous administration put Marxism and Mohammedanism first.

Liberal Democrats are in full meltdown mode.

They're flooding the article with comments.

Their hatred for America is on full display:

“....they unnerve critics who fear what the president might do in the absence of more measured advice.”

___________________________________________________________

Were the Neo-cons, Clobalists, and assorted corporate-whores in the GOP worried about “measured advice” when they were in power?

And it seems that only America is forbidden from being nationalist in any way. No one cares what nationalistic things other countries do.

Libs are totally insane.

The fact that they laid awake for several nights performing analysis to come to THIS conclusion proves your theorem.

I like how te establishment buffoons are considered inherently "measured" instead of militant globalist tools who advocate failed policies of weakness, capitulation, and submission.
