Woke New Yorkers whine about 4th of July saying America 'doesn't deserve a birthday party' - but newcomers have a different view

  Daily Mail Online

"Patriotism among liberals is extremely low, with recent polling from Gallup showing only 34 percent of Democrats claiming they are extremely proud to be American"

. . ."While it was mostly the young complaining about the state of the Union, a few older adults expressed similar sentiment. 

" 'I feel like America is going through difficulty right now, mainly because of the upcoming election,' said 85-year-old retiree Gino Musso.

"Steven Johnson Jr., 54, assistant Principal at elementary school in Charleston, North Carolina, and a combat veteran said he thought the world was 'on fire'. 

'It's almost watching our democracy unravel right before our eyes. It is very terrifying.'

"Despite many feeling unpatriotic this Fourth of July, others said they are proud to be Americans.

" 'I'm feeling patriotic, I'm actually feeling more patriotic than I expected,' Alonso Mayorga, 22, said. 'We need to focus on the core values and get back to those.' 

" 'I think America, one of the best things about it, there are lots of problems but everyone is free to speak their minds about them,' said Sahil Sen, 21.

"A Buddhist monk was also very positive about the U.S.

 " 'America is peaceful, and free for everybody,' he said. 

"According to a new ranking from WalletHub, Virginia - home of America's capital city Washington D.C. - is the most patriotic of all 50 states. " . . .

A cure for those with woke guilt would be to return Joe Biden and Gavin Newsom to the highest office available. TD
