Episode 64: Democrats’ Patriotism PLUMMETS

America turns 250 this year, and a new poll says 29% of Democrats aren't proud to be American anymore. A lot of them won't even fly the flag on the 4th! In this episode, I walk through the numbers, and some of them are genuinely hard to look at. Pride on the left has cratered. The two parties can't even agree on what the 4th of July is for. And there's the State of the Union moment Democrats refused to stand for. I also get into why it's happening, from what kids are taught in school to what the media rewards, plus a comfort that's quietly crowded out gratitude. The point is simple: your patriotism shouldn't rise and fall with whoever sits in the White House. It goes back to the God-given rights the founders put everything on the line to protect.
