1/ Of all the things the left surrendered to the right over the last 40 years, patriotism and morality are the two that have hurt us the most.

2/ The right doesn’t walk it’s talk but the left doesn’t talk it walk, too often sneering at issues of the heart with a condescension that has sent millions of people to the other side of the political divide.

3/ In truth, human beings are hardwired for connection to both tribe & moral sensibility. If you don’t give them a genuine version, they become easy prey for those who are peddling the counterfeit version. Patriotism and public morality are topics that should belong to all of us.

The American flag is a symbol of Trump.
how the fuck did the left surrender morality? bill maher had a great quote years ago about american patriosm "the right loves america like their mommy and the left loves it like their wife".

YES ... we stopped saluting the flag ... and we stopped going to church ... why ... because it wasn't cool ... and the RIGHT took those over ... used them ... and is still using them ... to their advantage!

There's definitely a divide of their own creation pushing each others base to the opposite because they wronged or unheard. I also believe ppl don't know how to handle loss in the political lenses. Due the idea that your side winning makes them right or smarter! It doesn't tho

MW, the left keeps their racism & plantation philosophy.
I vehemently disagree Morality & MATriotism <-#SacredFem drive the policies See the forest for the trees The forest IS the trees-vice versa Lies amplified & regurgitated, ad infinitum, do not truths make Unless you meant lib/neolib/blue dog/mod cent 🙏 Don't Gabbard the #LeftOUT

True patriotism is improvement of the country. Not saying things are fine that are not all the way to things that are downright evil—like Native American genocide and slavery etc etc. You help what you love IMPROVE, not deny FLAWS 🇺🇸

I would add "Christianity" to this, which is somehow largely associated with the right despite the obvious hypocrisies.

Patriotic slogans and wrapping yourself in the flag isn't. Working to serve your country to keep freedom and liberty for your dependents and your descendants, is. Are you saying Cadet Bonespurs is more patriotic than someone who actually #served his country not just his #donors.

Dems also surrendered being the peace party, and the party that works for the people. Clinton's and Obama's legacy. Did you notice? I know you did. Stop acting like you didn't. Biden won't fix this. He will only embolden what the party has become.
