The left hates America. They say they love America, but the don't. That is why Bernie Sanders says America is the least compassionate nation in the world. Imagine having a president that makes no bones about this. Perhaps this is why the left supported him. He is anti-American to the core. Liberals lean towards putting America last. It's easy for them to justify themselves because deep down they resent America. They've been taught to most of their lives. They feel that thinking first of your own country is evil. I keep thinking that the best place for folks that think this way is anywhere but here. I believe that this country has flaws but it has turned out to be one of the few shining examples of freedom and opportunity on the planet. Liberals see nothing but racism, bigotry, and oppression. I really cannot grasp this perspective. To me, anyone who feels this way is a threat to their own country. Because of this, they must not be allowed to dictate policy because they are in essence a greater threat than any enemy outside our shores. It's easier to defend ourselves from a threat that is 2000 miles away than it is to defend against someone who's inside your defensive perimeter.
How ironic that the presidential oath doesn't say defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic. Every other federal oath says so. Why not the presidential oath?
