“I love America more than any other country in the world and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.” (James Baldwin)

45 loves America but wouldnt fight for it - how many deferrals did he get again.  On the other hand black men and women throughout the history of U.S. has gone off to war to fight for freedoms they did/do not have in the country they were fighting for - not unlike FNs.  Ali lost his licence to box, was stripped of his titles, and stood out the best years of this boxing career when he said

“My conscience won’t let me go shoot my brother, or some darker people, or some poor hungry people in the mud for big powerful America.  And shoot them for what? They never called me ni**r, they never lynched me, they didn’t put no dogs on me, they didn’t rob me of my nationality, rape and kill my mother and father. … Shoot them for what? How can I shoot them poor people? Just take me to jail.”

45 spent his deferrals playing tennis.
