Well Katy Tur! You asked the question.....

“does the Democrats have a
patriotism problem”?

In a way, yes, but not the way you want to describe it!

We have a president who has been so arrogant, unqualified, incompetent, clueless & corrupt.

Then there are those who turn themselves inside out just to stay on course with trumpism.

My patriotic values are strong with every fiber of my soul. Yet when you even ask? You don’t know how we actually feel. I stand as a person who is passionate about my patriotic beliefs & not trumpism!

I saw her ask a question about American pride being at at all time low. She mentioned one party being more something or other. Is that what you are talking about?

There was much discussion how we "owned" the patriotism issue in 2024. Football and beer. etc.

There is no "patriotism problem", ya hack. [directed at Turr]

It was a bullshit session.

Speaking for myself, i enlisted in the Navy during the Vietnam war. I would not do that with Krasnov as the Commander in Chief. But I am not “less patriotic” now than I was then. I just would not fight for a dictator who wants to strip me of my rights.

She probably did say does instead of do since she drank the kool aid of dj trump. She’s been hit with the stupid stick.

Richard Kahlenberg, wrote an article, "Democrats Have a Patriotism Problem. Here's How to Fix It."

Something about how Democrats should be like Robert Kennedy's campaign in 1968 because the white working class likes patriotism and other things (didn't really get the point).

But I don't like the folks here constantly going after our allies over trivial complaints. There is much to be gained by growing up. That's why most people do it. I'm not overly judgmental. Name calling is childish. Its something Trump does.

She even wrote a New York Times best seller about what a jerk Trump was. He put her life in danger at a campaign rally. I watch her every day. She covers Trump for what he really is. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tv/articles/msnbc-katy-tur-cbs-mornings-152801393.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall

She's with us nearly all the time. Not because of loyalty. Because she truly believes what she's doing is right. If Trump does something good though she'll report it. She's a journalist.

I think you misinterpreted it. There is a poll out that show pride in America is way down, especially among Democrats. They were discussing that.

I wish that people who report the news would actually report the news instead of reporting The Polls. But that would take a lot more work and effort.

I’m not a fan of KT. I have gotten the impression that she is a lazy reporter and enjoys being a tv personality more than a dedicated journalist.

She veers to the middle of the road too often to suit me. Normalizing these goons is not the way to put our country back together, IMO.

She's consistently against Trump. She is a journalist, not an advocate. Maybe you are expecting too much.
