I have seen lots of video clips, Tik-Tok and the like recently being produced by visitors to the US for the World Cup. The vast majority of them are enamored with the freedoms we have, the opulence our country has to offer, and the friendliness of the common people they have met. I love seeing how Boston has welcomed the Scots, how a small town in Kansas hosted a team from a country some of them had never heard of, and how the Japanese actually took the time to clean up their mess after their game. Most of this highlights what the majority of us already knew, and that is how great our country is and how we should appreciate what we have. Instead I see a white liberal female mocking these people and having the audacity to say we can have these things because we don't have universal healthcare. Others mocking them because they admire how they see American flags flying in all of the neighborhoods and in stores. Particularly, a large number have toured thru the South and commented on the absolute best about America that we already knew. One particular couple visited Alabama and of course picked up the Bama hat and shirt. It was funny watching the reaction of the people in Louisiana and Georgia as they toured thru. They welcomed them and ridiculed them for their fashion sense, but at the same time genuinely exhibited care and compassion for people they had only met a few minutes before. The Brit made the comment about how great the SEC was and how he wished they had something like it in his country. It made me appreciate that we give each other hell, but we will help our brothers when they are in need.
It is a shame that more people in this country cannot appreciate the great things we have, the freedoms we enjoy and the richness of our society. Some of these folks would complain about free ice cream and claim lactose intolerance.

I’ve enjoyed the positivity coming from the World Cup visitors. Glad the World gets to see the real America.

You're right. We do have it made. All in all, this is a great country. For now. Let's make sure no Democrats get in at the top again and we'll do ok.
