For these very reasons, I am deeply disappointed with many on the Right — enabled, unfortunately, by both digital and cable news outlets — who have taken up the chant of “Let’s go Brandon.” It is not compatible with the ideas of patriotism and unity. Instead, it is a juvenile and disrespectful slogan that should have no place in our actual political discourse.

Celebrating derogatory statements toward a sitting president is not patriotic, whoever that president might be. How can we unite as a nation when one side finds this slogan acceptable?

It does nothing to promote a better body politic and is grossly offensive to the office of the president.
