It is many things Senator, But it isn’t Patriotism
What is a patriot? Wikipedia tells us that “Patriotism is commonly defined as love of and/or devotion to one’s country”. This is still somewhat vague - is it necessary for one, in order to be considered as patriot, to served in the armed forces and put his life at risk to defend one’s country? Or is it enough to support the national team in the Olympic games? Or maybe in order to be a patriot one have to support measures that limits one’s civil liberties? The answer is simple - Patriot is one who is willing to give up his liberty, property and life so politician, very much like Joe Biden, can trade it for power.
It never cease to shock me - the gall of those politician, the cynicism deceiving other people to harness their ideal, their values and they willingness to do the right things. You can call Joe Biden’s plan in many names - armed robbery come to mind - but they have nothing to do with patriotism.
