There may be nothing more American than criticizing government. If we weren't an anti-government people, we would still be British

Why?

It surely seemed okay for the 8 years prior.

And the 8 prior to that.

AND the 8 prior to that.

And so on. Throughout history, really.

Why is it suddenly not okay?

Our Constitution allows it.

This is still a free country.

Where's all this outrage at people so much as objecting to Trump coming from?

I can guarantee you, that if Hillary (or, hell, Bernie) was POTUS right now, there would not be outrage over people simply DISAGREEING with her. Or feeling she (or he) wasn't doing a good job.

I could see some outrage at people taking cheap shots based on her looks or his religion, kind of how people got upset at the cheap shots aimed at the Obamas for such things.

But, Trump ran a campaign BASED on low tactics like bigotry and intolerance. He loves it.

Why be so angry over people not liking him?

He's still President. There's no law requiring that anyone like him or that they don't criticize him.
When did it become Un-American to criticize the government?

It didn't.

Oh the poor fake lying ratings seeking media and misplaced snowflakies and Chuck Schumer and company waa!

It is un-American to criticize the government for doing what the constitution says it should be doing.

Ask a collectivist if they have a right to impose their personal will upon their neighbor with government aggression. They do, but they cannot admit it. Tyrants, psychopaths, sadists, and thugs, each and every one who believes in collectivism/statism in any form. It is so funny to almost see their horror at their pwn reflection, so little springs go "boing" and they immediately talk about something totally unrelated.

American "government" is nothing more than an institution of aggression upon the individual. It is an institution that is anti-freedom and anti-human. It enslaves some for the benefit of others. It allows us all to take turns being violent tyrants towards our neighbors. We vote to get to wield the ultimate evil weapon upon our neighbor. A barbaric force that completely destroys our soul and turns us all into thugs and tyrants. And yet we are all "innocent" in that we use government goons to do our evil for us.

Well we don't have to worry about that then. "Our" government has not following the letter or the spirit of the Constitution since the day it was ratified. "Our" government was supposed to protect and secure our natural rights. But then the people became citizens/subjects, so our natural rights became privileges. Even before we won "independence", the financiers had us tied into perpetual fictional debt, and "our" government offered up "its" population as human collateral and a slave race to those that they granted a monopoly over our currency. The "land of the free" never really existed. The experiment was a failure before it began. Sure it was better than the King, for a brief moment, but what emerged would be an absolute nightmare to all of those who wanted independence from what can be viewed now as the most minor of inconveniences that the King posed.

When the government acts only to secure our natural rights, which means it is only a retaliatory force, then there will be nothing to criticize. As long as it is an institution of aggression and destruction of natural rights, it deserves to be criticized non-stop by anyone who believes in human freedom.
