Patriotism is something that Conservatives “owned” or thought they did. Then along came the crazies in the GOP. Matt Gaetz (not unlike his boss) is a destroyer. The only pledge of allegiance he’ll have to sign is to (ugh) the president elect.
Patriotism runs deep in all Americans who understand the values that are fundamental to the United States of America.
It’s love of country, not fealty to a would be strong man. We, the people, are not bossed by our leaders. We choose them to serve us.
