Just something MAGA-people seem to have a hard time with sometimes. Probably not as much when Americans are speaking to themselves, but as a non-American, sometimes it’s challenging to get “those people” to admit that there is indeed anything wrong with the US. As in they won’t accept a single criticism, and will loudly proclaim “America is the greatest country in the world”, while wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, which for me pretty explicitly means America isn’t great, if it has to be made to be such again.

    Yup. It was funny how during the 2020 election cycle they briefly had to change all their merch to say “keep America great” despite continuing to use the MAGA slogan throughout most of Trump’s administration. By their logic, America was only “great” during the first part of 2020, which is… questionable, to say the least, since almost nothing was “great” during that time.

      Haha really? I hadn’t even heard. Brilliant.

      In the British colloquial sense, not in the “wow how intelligent of them”-sense.

      There’s just no end to the stupidity.
