American patriotism
Love of country
American patriotism is love of country expressed through loyalty to the United States, its founding ideals, and its symbols—the flag, the anthem, the Constitution.
It ranges from quiet civic pride to fervent nationalism.
Critics note it can slide into jingoism or be weaponized politically: Don't question my American patriotism just because I disagree with you.
