This clip right here is why many countries around the world hate the United States. It is absolutely baffling to me that someone could sit up on stage with a stupid grin and laugh about violating international law and pass it off as "we can do whatever we want because we Americans are exceptional" 🤦‍♂️ There is nothing exceptional about the United States. It is one of many great countries in the world. I could make arguments that Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Spain, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Australia, and many other are also "exceptional" in many metrics. So where is the United States "exceptional" here are a few metrics: - Obesity: We have one of the highest adult obesity rates among wealthy countries - Child poverty: We have one of the highest child-poverty rate among affluent nations - Healthcare spending: We spend substantially more per person on healthcare than any other wealthy countries, and yet are one of the most unhealthy nations - Incarceration: We rank near the top for the highest incarceration rates - Gun deaths: We have an exceptionally high firearm-death rate compared with other high-income countries. - Life expectancy: The U.S. trails many similarly wealthy nations despite spending the most on healthcare We also are a failing democracy with politicians who don't serve the people and only work to enrich themselves (no better example than Trump) We start useless wars across the globe and let foreigner countries (Israel) control and influence our foreign policy decisions. The best thing about the United States is the people and the diversity of our nation. But the US is failing more every day and our reputation has been destroyed on the world stage because of Trump and his idiotic policies The United States need to wake up. This clip exposes just how lost many Americans are
