Everybody claims to love America until loving America requires helping Americans. Patriotism isn’t wrapping yourself in a flag while cutting ribbons at campaign rallies. Faith isn’t holding up a Bible for the cameras while treating compassion like a political liability.

Q: Critics say you’re profiting off the presidency. Trump: “I’m profiting because the stock market is up.” Translation: open corruption is fine as long as the rich get richer. Treating the presidency like a personal ATM and calling it “economic success” is the scam.
