How does the country survive when one of the two major political parties supporters hate it?
Although I’ve always had my differences with Democrats, even at a young age, I never had any indication they hated the country. FDR was a big spending liberal Democrat. But he deeply loved the country.
Remember when Russia invaded Ukraine and they did a poll asking Americans that if we faced a similar situation, would Americans fight to defend their country? Independents and Republicans all gave a resounding yes. Democrats, on the other hand, said no. I commented my wife at the time why would they ever fight for something they hate?
