As it should. Donald Trump is the antithesis of Ronald Reagan.

No it isn't. It's creating more support for him and rightfully so.

If being proud of your country and want to make it better for ALL Americans means that I am a nationalist, then so be it.

Nice find. Even though I'm no fan of the NYT. The article sheds some light on suburban middle Americans who support the GOP of the past, and are bipartisan with democrats. Such people economically do not support Trumps economic nationalism, especially since the GOP crafted free trade agreements like NAFTA starting with Ronald Reagan, but signed into law by Democrat Reaganite Bill Clinton. Globalist Republicans also need access to cheap labor for goods to be made, but also cheap labor for jobs here in America. Globalist GOP Republicans would not want immigration reform which will hurt their businesses. I had to look at panoramic perspective. With immigration being a factor, whos going to do field work jobs. Should blacks and poor whites be sent back to the fields to work under Trump's nationalism? Or secure immigration so that immigrants have easy access to low wage jobs so that the average American can remain comfortable.

I say this once, and I will say it again. When Donald Trump got elected as President. Ronald Reagan turned in his grave.

Nationalism....

What do you think America 1st means?
Do you really think it means globalism?


He didn't say white Americans 1st, as has been implied.
Trump is not about equal outcomes for all
He is all about Equal Opportunities for all.
That is why under Obama, black people went on food stamps and white people got rich. All Black people were going to have an equal outcome.


Trump and the republican congress, has lifted everyone, no matter of race, color or creed, increasing economic freedom for all.
Trump is the "we President"
Not the "I President" as Obama was.

And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I'd gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.

'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land God bless the USA

OK. Then I guess you agree that if Hillary had been elected, Reagan would have just crawled out!

That's the gist of it, pretty much. I know a good many long-time Rs who voted for Clinton, even though they didn't like her, either.

Some also just didn't vote. They are now regretting it because Trump isn't particularly good for their financial interests.

The people who are excited over Trump financially are poorer people who are duped by his nationalist spiel and don't know much about finances and the very wealthy who are reaping some benefits from his cuts for corporations and VERY high earners.

Suburban Joe Republican who earns low six figures and runs his own, smaller business isn't getting helped by Trump. He's being hurt.
