What is an "ex patriot"? Is it somebody who loved

"Ex patriot", or expat is just the technical term for someone living
outside of their own country. It does sound a little like someone who's
disowned their native country, now that I think about it

Expatriate. An ex patriot would be someone who finally realized that his passion is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
