A Little Optimism from President Trump! And Don't We Need It?


Hate Trump all you want, he loves America unlike many of our liberal politicians who engage in a continuous mantra urging people to hate our patria, our homeland. Patria is the root of the words patriot and patriotism, the love of country. St. Thomas Aquinas describes piety (from the Latin pietas meaning dutifulness) as a special virtue that "pays duty and homage to our parents and country":  
"Just as religion is a protestation of faith, hope and charity, whereby man is primarily directed to God, so again piety is a protestation of the charity we bear towards our parents and country. (my emphasis) 
God save America!
