McCain did on his acceptance speech for some award earlier this week.

Those should be recent enough for you.
In the time it took you to post that, you could have just told me what they said.

You are hearing that from the Globalist because to them, an America first policy is a policy of isolationism. This is false, but these politicians and corporations have been moving freely around the world to cut costs and increase profits, so this threatens their pockets.

Because we are smart enough to see that what you are really saying is White Americans above all

Do you ever "hear" racist comments in everyday conversation that identifies a person or group as being part of "White Supremacy", or similar things about "sexism".."Islamophobia", etc?

People that are so selfish that they slaughter their own children for convenience don’t get to tell me I’m selfish for wanting to put American citizens first.

GO to page two, you'll see progressive idiocy on display. Somehow, it got twisted into some racial crap.

It’s become really fashionable in the last couple of decades to hate America. To nitpick and be triggered by the silliest things, like using a Fahrenheit temperature scale that is practical in everyday life instead of Celsius or daring to call American football “football” instead of handegg. Rebelling against the religion of mommy and daddy for being nonsense while believing in 50 different genders, being “creeped out” for having some regard for the flag and what it means instead of being an autismo wizard that can’t understand symbolism. Signaling this pure goonery makes you seem smart and cultured to other emotionally stunted manchildren.

I don't have an issue with "America First." I do have a problem with trade policies which hurt the American consumer. I also think these "extreme vetting" policies are silly. It's been proven that we usually catch people after the fact.

It's like you haven't heard of photoshop.

Oh...and here's the actual Snopes page you got it from stating it is a fricking fake.

Liar.

You don't think people know that picture is photoshopped?

Did you lift that from the blackfootsoldier website or DU?

I'd be inclined to believe that if it weren't for the fact that the image he used was from Snopes.
