Actually, I don’t think this way at all about Americans who are among the most generous and sensible people on the planet. But America is being taken for a ride by its political elites, and in this heading I am only echoing Donald Trump’s own concerns. This is a story from the Washington Post on Donald Trump’s first paid ad where the above sentiment is found:

In an interview Sunday with The Post, Trump said that he has six to eight ads in production and that his was a “major buy and it’s going to go on for months.” He said he hopes the spots impress upon undecided voters that the country has become “a dumping ground.”

“The world is laughing at us, at our stupidity,” he said. “It’s got to stop. We’ve got to get smart fast — or else we won’t have a country.”

It is America’s elites that are not quite there. Obama describing foreign leaders as “insane” is the most perfect example of projection I have ever seen.
