Paranoid, nationalist ravings, like what comes out of Trump advisor Frank Gaffney, serve to mask the real sedition of Gaffney and the people around him with whom Trump has hunkered down.
Just as Trump’s wailing about a rigged election let him slip the wool over James Comey’s unprecedently brazen act of election interference.
For a subversive Fascist like Gaffney, the loyalty oath is to Fearless Leader, not to the US itself.
