Oh, like the phrase "America First", which was first used by Nazi-sympathisers in the 1930s?
 

Quote

During the early 1930s, as the Nazis consolidated control over Germany, the U.S. media baron William Randolph Hearst began touting the slogan “America First” against President Franklin Roosevelt, whom he saw as dangerously likely to “allow the international bankers and the other big influences that have gambled with your prosperity to gamble with your politics.” Hearst regarded Roosevelt’s New Deal as “un-American to the core” and “more communistic than the communists” — unlike Nazism, which he believed had won a great victory for “liberty-loving people” everywhere in defeating Communism.

Yes, the America First Committee that was co-opted by communists, and antisemites.  Hmm, sounds familiar to a more recent organization.

The Republican party?

 

Constant tax cuts for the rich and whining about Soros and globalists? That definitely sounds like the Republican party.

I guess if you equate the Democrat Party with the KKK, and Jim Crow laws then you can make that comparison.

I realize you may not be up to speed on American history... nazis, anti-semitism, socialism and "share our wealth" are not really earmarks of the republican party.  

 

But you get an E for effort...
