Showing Your “Patriotism”

The ad here reads: Show your support for President Trump & The 2nd Amendment by hanging this limited edition yard flag outside your house, in your garden or wherever your patriotic heart desires. This is the perfect item for any patriot!

Fortunately, Americans’ appetite for this type of messaging is evaporating.  The Big Lie is on its deathbed, given the revelations from Fox News and Trump’s inner circle.  Yes, there will be a few morons who hold onto it, even as torrents of sworn court testimony rain down to the effect that there was no significant voter fraud in the 2020 election.

Soon, the word “patriotism” will return to its former meaning, where dishonesty and treason play no part.

Second Amendment fanaticism may be harder to eliminate.  The hardcore nuts have been thinking that Democrats have been “comin’ for their guns” for half a century.  The fact that there hasn’t been a whisper about banning handguns for sane adults to use for personal protection doesn’t mean a thing to them.
