jingoistically
In bellicose nationalist fashion
In a manner expressing aggressive, chest-thumping patriotism and support for military action against other countries.
Jingoes believe their nation superior and favor belligerent foreign policy: The senator spoke jingoistically about projecting American power abroad.
The term carries strong negative connotations—no one calls themselves jingoistic.
