America is only as good as the integrity of the people who make it up. No foreign enemy can damage America as badly as we can when we abandon our principles and elect and support leaders who serve their own corrupt interests over the welfare and security of our nation. Ignoring that isn't patriotism, it is idiocy.
The problem with your argument is that you dont know where the line is drawn, so not only do you tacitly support crossing the line, but you provide concealment for the enemies of America who encourage you to take a bold stance in favor of a blurred line so they can hide behind you and remain concealed from scrutiny and continue intentionally and knowingly crossing where you might have drawn the line so they can BASH the hell out of America so it will be weakened and eventually collapse.
How can talk collapse America?
Contagion.
Leaders set the tone and followers follow their lead.
Most millennials look around constantly to get a gauge of where they stand in relation to their herd.
When they see others bashing America and the POTUS, they feel safe and justified in doing the same.
It makes them feel part of something larger and cooler than themselves.
But how does that adversely affect Trump or America?
Because leaders always and only lead with the consent of the governed.
If and when the leader loses enough support of the people, he can no longer lead them.
Every sledge hammer blow removes a little bit of support and then the tractor finishes the job.
