Trump does lap of honour.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

"Are the Americans really that stupid." Well, not most Americans that I know.

But certainly a lot of others.

The guy is a clown, but a lot of Americans stil think that the soundbite "make america great again" actually meams sometnimg.

Unfortunately, these are the ones marching around with very large assualt rifles. A more normal country would lock these people up and throw the key away.

Why does the president of the United States say America is the greatest country in the world ?

Its complete bollocks

Built on slavery and genocide of the native American people

Huge Christian influence on everything

Terrible inequalities in health care

Foreign policy disasters left right and centre

Totally agree with you on all that but it's a pretty amazing country in a lot of ways. Incredible beaches, mountains, lakes, forests/some fantastic cities/produces a lot of brilliant cultural contributions in terms of films, music etc. Nice variance of weather and in my experience I find Americans as a general rule to be a lot more friendly and open than here as well.

Trouble is for the US is that a lot of people just think of it as a basket case right now, probably not too dissimilar to how a lot of the world sees the UK
