Patriotism is cool again. Some would say patriotism, defined as “love of one’s country,” never goes out of style. But to the Left, it’s clearly not an unconditional love. Narcissistic liberals demand a country in their own image.

Lear is so moved by the spirit of patriotism these days that he created a campaign focused on being a “Born Again American.”

they do not love this country. They love having a socialist in the WH. period.
