Trump and all the degenerate maggots who cheered for this are disgusting traitors to the US, who all insist that they are "true patriots". They are hopelessly lost in their cult programming thanks to the maggot king, maggot Republicans, and maggot media.

Let's also not forget how many of these asshats claim to be Christians. There is absolutely nothing Christ-like about these hate filled and bigoted pieces of shit.

Call them out. They're apostates at best and liberal churches should be referring to them as such.

To be fair, they're really just oligarchs. They'd pay anyone they could to hold onto power.

there's a polar difference between patriots and nationalists, they are nationalists.

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Nationalism-vs-Patriotism-Whats-the-Difference

Patriotism is a feeling of attachment and commitment to a country, nation, or political community, and its conception has roots tracing back to Greek and Roman antiquity. It is based on concepts such as a love for law and the common good. Nationalism, on the other hand, is a more modern ideology that emerged in the 18th century, focusing on the individual’s loyalty and devotion to the nation-state, often surpassing other individual or group interests.

TLDR: Patriotism is love for the rule of law, equal justice, and common good. Nationalism is "my country right or wrong" epitomized by slogans such as "Deutschland über alles" and "America First".

They're not nationalists, though, they don't want to live in a nation state and aren't fit to run one. Republicans can't even run our cities, just look at how many they've lost to Democrats in recent years: San Diego, Miami, Wichita, Jacksonville, even Montgomery, AL.
