    When I read this I just laughed thinking of all the posters on this forum who hate the US.

    What is the issue? You disagree?

    We are a nation that is hostile to liberty, freedom, and faith.

    We are a nation that lost its confidence, willpower, and strength. We are a nation that has lost its way.

    We are a nation that allowed Russia to devastate a country, Ukraine, killing hundreds of thousands of people, and it will only get worse … Taiwan will be next.

    It’s interesting which group rallies around the motto “Make America great again”.

    Also, nowhere in there is anything about hate. 65% of current Democrats think the US is at least among the greatest nations on Earth. And even the other 35% just say there is another country that is better, which says nothing of absolute judgements. I think there are better sax players than Cannonball Adderley, but I like him so much I named one of my kids after him.

    Thank you for proving my point. Yes I disagree. Is the US perfect? God no. Not even close. Is it one of the best places to live in the world? Yes.

    I hope he appreciates how cool the name Cannonball truly is.

    Ha, I left out the details, but unfortunately it wasn’t the cannonball part that my kid inherited. My daughter’s middle name is Adderley.

    36% of Dems think the US is not a great country at all. Not sure why you are trying to make it not seem so bad...

    I have traveled to over 20 countries and members of my family have lived overseas for extended periods of time. All said there are some great places to live(Austrailia/New Zealand and Norway are great they said).

    Is it because many of them see some to vast needs for improvement?

    The fact that millions from other parts of the world come here illegally tells me we're at least a pleasant alternative to most. Then again, I don't know of another nation that would put up with the porous border we've allowed the last three years.

    So what OP is saying is that the person that campaigned on making America great again didn't actually do so

    Then you'll have to take it up with Trump, because those are all his words at one of his trained seal rallies last year.

    Failing to worship trump does not mean I hate the USA. False dichotomy.

    If I’m reading your link correctly, this group agreed with the statement “Other counties are better than the US”, which I don’t think is logically equivalent to “not a great country at all”.

    "...you're part of the worst. Generation. Ever...." Lol! your boy Biden should adopt that as his motto!

    Btw, I love how yall parade this clip out to blast "MAGA"--when--right after blasting the poor "sorority girl" for daring to profer the premise that America is the greatest nation on the planet-he says "...we sure used to be."

    LOL!

    Rock that MAGA hat cowboy!

    What? I'm not a trumper. Never voted for him. I'm mostly independent now. But thanks for confirming that this thread would hurt some feelings LOL.

    Nah, but hating America does, and by the way the dummyrat party governs, it damn sure seems like they straight up HATE the USA.

    PS--Trump doesn't make them do it either.

    You need maga translation I guess. Then he goes on to explain what made us great was that we didnt scare so easily, we undertook big government projects, built big things, had the best art and economy, revered knowledge and were not afraid of it, spent money on poverty not poor people... he's right, we were great.
