Being loyal to the country (or countries) you identify with.
Your honor is loyalty, right?

RE: Trump is going to be reelected....
I'm not a fan of making analogies between movies and real life, but this one seems apt:

Remember when Scar promised the hyenas a better life in order to use them to gain power? When they found out he lied to them, they ate him. This is why Trump won't run again.

I'm a citizen of three different countries, and I don't feel particularly loyal to any of them. If this disqualifies me as a patriot, I suppose I'll just have to live with the shame of it all.

I see we've got ourselves another frozen peach enthusiast. Being highly critical of ones government, or of nationalistic ideation, is an example of free speech - not a failure condition for patriotism.

Anymore, the difference between a lib and someone else is whether or not a person will swear fealty to the god-king. It's pretty amusing to see american patriotism judged on those metrics.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I don't know any of his policies, so I guess the second one.

When there is a charismatic person involved Ahri's disorder has a difficult time telling good from bad, right from wrong, sane from insane, ................. It's a need to believe, rational or not.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

I won't deny that. But I don't place nearly as much value on rationality as an atheist would. Facts are trifling things. Give me someone who will let me dream.
