That’s not patriotism. Being patriotic is like being honest; if someone has to stress how honest they are, they’re not.
Put another way: patriotism is shown through actions, not through words.
I show my patriotism by voting and ensuring the rights and autonomy of others is protected. That's theoretically why nations exist. I can be proud of mine when it fulfills that promise.
Or flags. Especially with blue lines.
Patriotism is loving your country by loving its foundation. It's people. Loving your neighbor. Loving your brothers and sisters. I feel no love from the GOP.
