There's nothing wrong with a superhero being patriotic. Captain America, for example, is patriotic. And though he does wear the American colors proudly, he isn't going around with the American flag hanging from his back. The cape itself is tacky. The fact that Patriot in his entirety comes across as this cookie-cutter superhero, paired with the cape, could come off as offensive. He's more like a Saturday Night Live parody of the American superhero than the real deal.
