Makeshift Patriot 

A makeshift patriot is someone who is manipulated into a sense of patriotism by the media, the government and other sources outside of their own experience. This definition comes from an interpretation of the song by the same name by the artist Sage Francis.

Don't waive your rights with your flags.

Makeshit

Something that is makeshift, but still incredibly bad. An obvious failure to improvise successfully. If "Man vs Wild" was remade starring Donald Trump, he would end up sleeping in a lot of Makeshit shelters.

Simon: "Sounds like a pretty makeshit lunch."
