They’re Just Fools

I lived more than 70 years of my life in the USA, so I know from personal experience that not everyone in that country is a moron. Indeed, some Americans are decent, smart, and well-informed. But I read news reports, and from them I am strongly compelled to conclude that nearly everyone in the country is a moron, and a vicious one, to boot. Is it possible that all these reports of what Americans are doing and saying are fake news? I don’t think so, because my personal experience tells me that especially in regard to anything connected with politics, Americans are — and probably always have been — morally and intellectually beyond all hope. As Southerners would say, Bless their hearts, they’re just fools.
