Because of that, the US Secretary of Education referred to them as a "Terrorist organization" due to their rabble-rousing and protesting.

Disliking the president and hating the US are two entirely different concepts. I, for one, can't stand the bastard, and I hope he rots in hell. But I love the United States, and I will do my best to protect it, especially from the president. I am doing my best to fight from within the system to prevent him from destroying the country I hold dear.
