And I don't mean ideologically; I mean we're right in the center. We support the Constitution, the Declaration, the founding, and everything that was done to create this nation. How can we be right wing? Right wing of what?"
"These people are not America First, Levin argued, adding: America First isn't evil over good. America First is not tyranny over liberty. America First doesn't sound like the Marxist, Islamist, anti-American Jew haters. That's not American at all. That's not America first, second, or third. No, they're aiding and abetting people who want to destroy the country. They want to destroy the country."
Rising extremes on both the left and right were condemned, with the far-left labeled 'Marxist-Islamists' and the far-right labeled 'neo-Nazi fascists.' Individuals who platform white supremacists and praise totalitarian figures were criticized for aiding dangerous movements. Constitutional conservatives were distinguished from radical right elements and described as centered and supportive of the Constitution and founding principles. America First rhetoric was defended as not inherently tyrannical or anti-American, while some claiming that label were accused of abetting forces that wish to destroy the country. References to Islamist violence against Americans were used to underscore perceived threats.
