How did the left get so goddamn gullible? It's always been ethnic tribalism disguised as patriotism but the West Wing crowd pretends it's some sort of childlike love of country. Like these guys aren't bad people, they're just too sweet and naive in the way they love America.
Meanwhile, these fascist dip****s are a-okay with ****ting on non-white veterans, letting Putin disrupt elections, telling their fellow citizens in Puerto Rico to **** off and die, etc. etc. All the Republicans have to do is obsess over the national anthem at sportsball games and occasionally dry-hump a flag and the center-left automatically credits them with acting in good faith.
That smirk on Trump's face? That's him knowing full well the flag-humping is a farce, and moreover he knows his audience is mostly in on the gag as well. The only people who don't get it are the Dems.
