It was only a matter of time before the left attacked patriotism as an offensive state of mind. This week, they’ve done just that.
Clinton Secretary of Labor Robert Reich attacked the idea of American exceptionalism as “exclusionary” and a result of Donald Trump’s promotion of America-first policies. Of course — if anything comes from Donald Trump it must be bad.
He goes beyond attacking the GOP nominee in his post in the SF Gate. He attacks all Americans who fear Islamic extremism. He denies the phenomenon of homegrown terror, despite the fact that the terrorists behind both the Orlando and San Bernardino attacks were all born in the United States. He even criticizes the “Republicans in Congress” who are unwilling to let individuals from Central America to flow across the nation’s borders.
His view of America isn’t patriotism, it is a dismantling of America as an identity.

Patriot
What an A$$.
You are dispicable. Patriotism is the core of this country.
You sir are an Idiot
You are a MORON ! What you know of being a patriot would not fill a thimble ! And the fact that you are working for the biggest liar next to Satan tells me everything i need to know of your character or rather the lack thereof !
You are a coward ,just like your boss
6 more months
F**k him.. Execute him for Treason
He is an idiot.
Patriotism: devotion to one’s own country and concern for its defense. Evidently Mr. Secretary of Labor doesn’t know how to use the dictionary. Most people learn to use a dictionary in elementary school. He was obviously in Liberal class 101 when they passed out dictionaries.
