What's ironic is that there are other countries that are living the so-called "American Dream", while here in America, we are becoming a backwards, underdeveloped country, with even more backwards attitudes and ideas - all fostered by the orange one and his gang...
And to top that off, we're so damn arrogant, we're not bothering to learn better ways of doing things from those same other countries.

Are we great yet ?

not wishing to upset our American cousins, but the image coming from Trump is that the US is too bogged down with politics and religion, and full of their own self importance , to keep up with the rest of the world,

In a few years, China will be the world leader and the USA will be just another theocracy no different from any Muslim country.

Not even slightly surprised. They've already outstripped us in alternative energy and several areas of advanced technology. "Make America Great Again"

Read papers from out of the country. Since the US got pulled out of the Paris Accord (of which we are the only country NOT in it now?), other countries do not consider us the leader of the free world. This, however, scientifically proves it.
