Definition of Nationalism

RUSH: Speaking of CNN, which I have no compunction, no problem admitting, I just despise the way these people do things. I just despise it. I’m sure I’m not alone here. But we have this. It mitigates it a bit. This is CNN analysis of exit polling data from Election Day – “A majority of swing state voters across the United States support Trump’s nationalist agenda on immigration.”

Now, we’re back to this word “nationalist” again. I’ve mentioned a search engine out there in competition with Google. It’s called DuckDuckGo. And the attraction to DuckDuckGo is that they do not keep track of anybody. They do not keep track of you and your searches and your search history. Not at all. Google, of course, does.

So if you go to DuckDuckGo and you search for the definition of “nationalism,” you get the correct definition of “nationalism.” If you go to Google and search for the definition of “nationalism,” you get an incorrect definition that includes references to Nazism and so forth and references to Trump and his call for a nationalist agenda.

There’s nothing socialist, national socialist, Nazi-like at all about Donald Trump, and CNN knows this, and Google knows it. They know exactly what Trump means when he calls himself a nationalist. And so does DuckDuckGo. And there are many different definitions for the word. And the one that’s applicable here is the one that simply says a nationalist is one who loves and adores and appreciates his own country and thinks that others in other countries do the same thing.

And it is a belief that support of your own country is how your own country grows and sustains. It has nothing to do with the implied definition that CNN and Google and others are attempting to attach to Donald Trump and his definition or his use of the word “nationalist.”

He’s using “nationalist” as a substitute for “Make America Great Again,” and it’s no more complicated than that. So they’ve got this exit poll data that shows the majority of swing state voters support Trump’s agenda on immigration. CNN’s not happy about this.
