The lyrics identified who Americans were angry at: the free, comfortable New Leftists, college students, bougie hippies, and liberal elite fellow-travelers who burned the American Flag, slandered our soldiers as baby-killers, and called their country "AmeriKKKa." Haggard especially targeted the antiwar activists who insulted our troops even as they were fighting and dying, and who "Love our milk and honey" but "Preach about some other way of livin'." Sound familiar?
Once here, most were free to honor their home country and its cultures, but there was no question that if they wanted their children to have the opportunities and political freedom of America, they had to assimilate to those principles, and abandon or relegate to civil society those customs and mores that contradicted the American way.
They were expected to learn English and American history, including learning about their new country's heroes and political principles.
Anti-American Americans are exercising their First Amendment right, and no matter how hypocritical, ignorant, incoherent, hateful, and insulting their speech, it is protected by law and legal precedent.
American anti-Americans freely indulge their First Amendment rights, but they and their social media tech-allies don't want their opponents to have the same freedom.
As for Trump, once again he has said what many Americans think, but seldom hear from the Republican elite.
He has stood up for those same Americans who love their country, not because it's perfect, not because they think its history is sinless, but because it has in word and deed shown itself to be the "Last best hope" we fallen mortals have in a tragic world.
