Allegiance

I particularly liked this passage in President Trump's inaugural speech.
At the bedrock of our politics will be a total allegiance to the United States of America, and through our loyalty to our country, we will rediscover our loyalty to each other. When you open your heart to patriotism, there is no room for prejudice.
That resonated with me for some reason, probably because of my Army service.  I thought that the rest of the speech was workman-like, but not particularly inspiring.  I take consolation in the fact that Barack Obama is a great speech-ifier, but was a terrible president.

As long as Trummp is a great president, I don't care if he never gives another speech.
