It's in the correct order for general english grammar. Adjectives modify the noun to which they belong by being placed in front of that noun. Using the X of Y construction is only for linking two nouns where one of the nouns is a place or group to which the first noun belongs. What matters most is that the relative importance of X and Y are the reverse of what the left thinks in this construction. In normal Adjective-Noun phrases, the Noun is more important, and the adjective is merely a modifier. In X of Y nominal phrases, the second noun Y is more important and subordinates the first noun by genitive particle "of", which suggests that that noun X belongs to noun Y.

But because Leftists are too stupid to actually learn grammar, they think in terms of comparably to a child: X comes before Y, therefore X is more important.
