Townhall<\/a> posted an article today about an eagle used on t-shirts by the Trump campaign. The eagle is an ‘imperial eagle.’ Some over-excited members of the press are describing the eagle as a “Nazi symbol.”<\/p>\n

Before you get to concerned about that, you might want to examine the history.<\/p>\n

The article includes the following:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The following is from the USA Today fact check on the matter:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a>The article also mentions that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi uses a similar symbol on her website. The Marine Corps also uses a similar symbol in their emblem. The bald eagle is America’s national bird. To liken the use of it to racism and Nazism is simply over the top.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

This is the very example of why the American people hate the mainstream media. Everyone has become obsessed with these “fact checks,” yet simple things like this are totally bogus. For whatever reason, anything and everything\u00a0<\/em>President Donald Trump and his campaign does has to be racist or stoke anti-Semitism. The term “Make America Great Again” has been labeled racist. These shirts are being compared to Nazi Germany propaganda.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unfortunately this sort of reporting is why many ill-informed Americans believe that the President is a racist. Based on his history, this is simply untrue. To claim that President Trump is a racist simply divides Americans and creates an obstacle to our working together to better the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
