a peaceful, polite attack on America’s form of government by an interested party (say, Australia, maybe). This beneficial “attack” might instruct us on how to have sensible gun laws, declare war, Mandatory Voting and High Turnout, Independent Electoral Management, Parliamentary Flexibility vs. Gridlock and many other models.

I use “attack” metaphorically because we all know our pompous American exceptionalism takes no advice or examples to heart from other nations unless they bow down to our acclaimed superiority . (NATO, anyone?)

In this Always America First climate my patriotism would categorized- “enemy of the state”
