The definition of "patriotism" adhered to by certain members basically translates to "loyalty to the government" with the caveat "but only when the government is controlled by my side". Naturally, when the government is controlled by the other side, disloyalty to the government is considered the highest form of patriotism.
So now that Trump is the president, Trump supporters expect everyone to be loyal, even though Trump supporters just spent the past eight years trying to tear down the previous president.
Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.

Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

Lol...I'm sort of bored with explaining how US politics effects me and my country directly. It's sort of common knowledge to any thinking person.
What's in between is most people. I'm not a socialist, neither are the vast majority of liberals and Democrats. Not to mention patriotism and conservative aren't mutually exclusive.
