[See NewsBusters for more.] Veteran ABC journalist Cokie Roberts on Sunday agreed with a Democratic strategist’s smear that Donald Trump’s “America First” mentality really means “white America First.” Appearing on a This Week panel, Jamal Simmons attacked, “The thing about this all that is so concerning to me is that the President is undermining all these American institutions — he's going after the press, he's going after the judiciary.” Simmons sneered, “It's starting to make it seem a little bit, also, like ‘America first’ is really ‘white America first.’” Journalist Roberts agreed: “But I think there's a lot of truth to that. And it's interesting because the President himself keeps undermining the possibility of anything seeming normal.”
