Sure. Rationalize it however you wish. I'm not really talking about the phrases themselves. I'm talking about how easily people are falling for the message without a second glance.
The people falling for Trump are the Right Wing equivalent of those that were dumb enough to fall for Obama's Hope and Change.
Maybe all those Americans trust Trump to not have as much tee time as the last guy, who hid on the golf course. Hillary got a big trust issue going on at all times also. Why is it so hard to believe a majority of people would place Trump in the WH instead of some political establishment figure?
You do realize that George W. Bush, who was a conservative Republican spent WAY more time on vacation than Obama, right?
During his eight-year presidency, Bush did take 879 days of vacation, including 77 trips to his Texas ranch. So far, Obama has taken about 150 days off.

Bush was running off to his "ranch" at every opportunity he could, so I don't want to hear about Obama's personal time.
Obama Has Spent More Time Playing Golf Than In Intel Briefings

All of these triggered liberals... not to mention the the leftie overlord himself. (Funny how any thread he posts instantly gets flooded with Stars and Flags, wouldn't you say?)
If this had been Bernie or Hillary using the same strategy, you would all be advertising it and gloating about how important it is for the children to understand the importance of social tolerance (assuming such lyrics were used in such a performance). God forbid you have children singing about being Patriotic.
I notice the left wing supporters will at any cost use any small piece of media against Trump to defend their views, and stick together in such threads as if they were trying to mimic the Spartans from 300. That's literally all you guys have, is mental manipulation tactics based on opinions and feelings. No facts, no hard evidence, just your feelings.
But show them a thread about Germany or Sweden and all of the problems that their short sighted beliefs actually hold for the future, and you will rarely see a peep from them.
It really is telling.

Perhaps it was unfair of me to lump so many together in such an unfavorable way, but I believe it is equally unwise to assume that none would support such rhetoric, as we are talking about a large margin of people here.
Label him racist, a bigot, whatever have you, these are simple titles that just lump together very differing mindsets into a single category, just for people to write them off as being all the same (funny enough, isn't this what liberals claim the "racists" do to minorities?). He has already demonstrated on several occasions he is not racist, he is pro border and anti illegal immigration. He's clearly stated he will allow minorities into the country, as long as they do so LEGALLY.
He perceives the threat of a terrorist organization that is supported by a religion which has repeatedly demonstrated a hate for Americans, and thus wishes to halt immigration of those likely to support it. Remember, the key there is Islam is not a race, it is a religion.
If you believe it is racist to want protected borders to ensure security and a stable economic structure, I would highly scrutinize your sense of rationality. Could you elaborate, with proof, what exactly makes him racist?
I must admit though, I do admire that last quote. The truth is good and bad, and can exist in the same place. Such is the paradox of politics and the nature in which we reside.

Here are the full lyrics...
Cowardice, are you serious?
Apologies for freedom, I can’t handle this.
When freedom rings, answer the call.
On your feet, stand up tall.
Freedom’s on our shoulders, USA!
Enemies of freedom
Face the music, c’mon boys take ‘em down!
President Donald Trump knows how to make America great
Deal from strength or get crushed every time.
Over here, USA!
Over there, USA!
Freedom and liberty everywhere
Oh say can you see, it’s not so easy
But we have to stand up tall, and answer freedom’s call
USA USA USA USA
We’re the land of the free and home of the brave
USA USA
The stars and stripes are flying that celebrate our freedom
Inspire proudly freedom to the world
Ameritude, USA
American pride, USA
It’s attitude, It’s who we are stand up tall
We’re the red white and blue, Fiercely free, that’s who
Our colors don’t run, no sir-ee
Over here, USA!
Over there, USA!
Freedom and liberty everywhere
Oh say can you see, it’s not so easy
But we have to stand up tall, and answer freedom’s call
