What principles, creeds, or ideas is Mr. Dillon talking about? Does he even know? I hate when people try to sound profound and deep and totally miss having any real fungible ideas.
The founding fathers did not conceive of a country where everyone was a form of an American? You were a Virginian, Massachusettian, a Marylander loosely connected to your brother states. America for Americans is like Utopia for Utopians, it doesn't exist in American history.
Seth's America is a made up lie told by a government that has subverted America since it's founding, but has really advanced the idea post the Civil War
Both democrats and republicans (in power) have two shared founding myths. The first is that Lincoln was the good guy and the postwar amendments were totally not unconstitutional on their face. The second is that nationalism is fascism and that the civil rights act is the actual basis of America, not the constitution.
The only nation republicans support homogenization in is Israel. The only thing “conservatives” conserve is the civil rights mythos. Everything else is completely ignored or twisted to fit within that mythological narrative. In this case “I disagree with you but I’ll defend your right to say it” somehow became “we must let anyone say or do anything at any time including tearing down the constitution and voting in millions of communists while they silence my neighbors”.

Furthermore, they explicitly wrote that they were founding these United States for themselves and their posterity, with "posterity" being an old-timey way of saying "future descendants". And then our first congress passed a bill that President Washington signed into law, limiting citizenship to free White people of good character. Everyone saying the US is a propositional nation needs to read a book, a nation is blood.
Not only that, but they systematically went through every level of government and removed people who were not here before the Revolution. That's why Gallatin ended up being Secretary of the Treasury and not in Congress.

I could hug you so hard for saying that. Completely agree
For planes to not fall out of the sky, disparate impact has got to die.
Constitutional amendments were unconstitutional?
Amendments forced by congress at gunpoint are constitutional?
they weren't passed correctly
