Trump administration 2024-2028

Americans (the ones inhabiting the chunk of land between the Rio Grande and 49 degrees north/Great Lakes) have been drinking their own bathwater for 250 years. Beacon of democracy my ass, its been a haven for grifters, tyrants, and assholes since the Puritans stepped on Plymouth Rock.

And right from the start, they were masters at self aggrandizement and over the top self promotion (like a certain current president): They make such hullabaloo of said Plymouth rock. Have you ever seen it! It's just another dinky little flat stone amongst tons of similar ones everywhere on that coast. If it hadn't been marked somehow, no one would be able to figure out which one it was.

We are very good at being outwardly sanctimonious and preachy without an actions to back us up. Not to mention our often over inflation our importance and impact in the world.

We're dicks too, we just don't like to admit it.
 
The difference is that very few people in the world listen to us when we get preachy (which I admit is a feature of the central Canada chattering class) . The USA on the other hand have been screwing up the world royally since WWII, while at the same time preaching to the world that they're the perfect democracy.

Vietnam and the Persian Gulf Region are number one examples. The Yanks figured they'd be able to right the wrongs of the French and British Colonials and in the end their hubris embroiled their young men and women in Indo China and now Iran.

No, let me correct myself, the Ivy League Grads embroiled the sons and daughters of trade school grads in these adventures. Heaven forbid their own children would be sacrificed.

And I doubt that the Canadian grads of UofT and McGill would be any better if they were in that position.
