    No. You simply defined patriotism to exclude anyone you think is a leftist. That is a logical fallacy.

    For instance.
    There have been "leftists" that have served in the military. Normally anyone in the military could be considered a patriotic American. You have clearly laid out that you won't accept that as being patriotic.
    Serving in Congress could be considered something that is done by a patriotic American. Yet you rail against the "leftists" that are in Congress.
    There have been "leftists" on the Supreme Court. One would hardly describe any Supreme Court Justice as being unpatriotic.

    I don't exclude anyone that is a true patriot. I have found that leftist aren't and have chosen to exempt themselves. It's their choice. They're welcome when they start doing the right thing and make the choice to change their ways.

    LOL... That is the perfect example of the "No true Scotsman" logical fallacy.

    Your standard is not a solid set of principles that you apply. Rather it is an emotional argument that anyone you decide is not a patriot isn't a patriot.

    Yes. And? Did he represent the normal person in the military?

    Without a solid standard to apply to individuals you are not defining patriotism. You are simply declaring yourself a patriot and anyone you don't like to not be one. That is the classic "No True Scotsman" logical fallacy. You simply change your meaning of patriotism based on who you are applying it to.

    I think Samuel Johnson said it best when it comes to people that want to declare who isn't a patriot when compared to themselves.
    "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel."
    "We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid."

    You probably will see some "tweaked out Trump bikers" come spring/summer riding together to support various charities.
    Of course, you're too imbalanced to ride a bike, much less support a charity.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    It's a set of standard to which you or any other lefty can meet. It's why you make excuses and blame others for what you'll never be.
