Depending on who you ask. On the left it is some purple haired, nose ring, skinny Jean wearing him/her mutant.

Greed and self gratification is what makes countries prosperous.
I bought a pork loin at Krogers today. I wanted it for myself and my wife. I didn't give a shite about anyone who worked at the store.
They took my $7 because they wanted my money. They didn't give a shite if I liked pork loin or just threw it in the trash on the way out.
Freedom is a wonderful thing. And it's not guaranteed.

Why did you leave out the part about putting country above those things? Greed doesn’t have to be money either.

The good of the country trumps everything, including personal safety.

Yea, Trump is so much better off now than before he stepped into office.
He really took advantage of America.

Demprogs consider electoral fraud to be a "patriot's" duty.

To really know what a Patriot is, you have to spend some time reading about the history of our founding. Unfortunately very few people, even those with their heart in the right place, really know more than a comic-strip version of our history and it shows.
Most of us know the names, but very few know what they actually did and the mindset they had. James Otis, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson... Take the time to read what they did, said, and wrote. They knew their history and knew it well. If people now would shift a tiny bit of the time they spend on forums and watching videos to reading history, we would all be in a better position with regard to what is coming.
Here is a tiny tiny example of how a Patriot talks. The first is Henry's "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death" speech, and the second is one of several speeches he gave opposing abandoning the Articles of Confederation and adoption of a new constitution to replace it. If you read the debates on ratification, you'll see that those who opposed (so-called Anti-federalists but who were actually the true federalists) predicted exactly where we are today.
Liberty or Death speech
Speech at Va. Ratifying Convention

A patriot is someone who loves America and believes in the ideas that she was founded upon. A patriot cares about America first and believes an American president should make all decisions based only on American citizens and not about the rest of the world.
In other words, everything that the left doesn't stand for.

A patriot of the US is one who loves the union and uses their skills, talents and resources to defend the constitution and takes it as their own responsibility to make sure it's upheld. It's also valuable to mention, true Patriots know their weapons are to be leveraged when the government goes haywire. It is well within our right to take this country back by force.
