You were not clear about which leaders you meant. There’s no doubt that leading Democrats hate the country. Are you saying that they also don’t care about America’s citizens?

Thomas Sowell quoted H.G. Wells (1866 - 1946):


Internationalism has long been a competitor with patriotism, especially among the intelligentsia. H.G. Wells advocated replacing the idea of duty to one's country with "the idea of cosmopolitan duty."

Even before Wells died Democrats began enforcing the ". . . the idea of cosmopolitan duty." To a liberal —— duty to one’s country has come to mean duty to the International community.
The leaders I refer to are our leaders. Presidents and corporate executives and leaders who have traditionally imparted morals on society by their actions and behaveuore. The reverand who lived a life of poverty as an example for his followers. I don't see this as a dem repub problem.
The youth of America see their leaders selling the country off to other nations. They see their future in jepordy and have no reason to hold a patriotic feeling. They can see this nation held hostage to it's greed and want no part of it.
