Today in the USA Nationalism is tied to "White Nationalist" - if you do not know what that is here then look it up.

uhh no -- however since Trump is a racist, he might lol.

It is not an argument - it's me explaining and putting in context - who, what, where, when etc so you know what it means to us Americans vs a guy looking up words in the dictionary to understand it. Sadly doing that in general with Trump is difficult as he is an idiot with a very limited vocabulary and limited reading skills.
