I am hoping that he has begun to act like a president and not like a blowhard punk.

I think you missed the point of the OP, which is that you can be any stupid bitch motherfucker vindictive natural asshole you were born to be, but still feel feigned and vicarious moral superiority by way of the US president being worse than your PM or chancellor. Like feeling vicarious superiority when your football club wins.

If there were any other point, then an actual issue might have been brought to discussion.

Yea, one can feel that way but that would be a sign of insecurity. Personally, I don't need to feel any superiority based on any political reality. Plus one needs to reach a little to get all of that out of 'YOUR President.'

It's a little like patriotism being derived from the idea that I love my country and it's superior all because...I was born in it.

But what about all your earlier posts about immigrants to European countries?

The Germanic countries have half a clue, sometimes a bit more than that, about the relationship of education to society, and both economic and social benefit obtained thereby.

The US has ~ .0005% clue on the same issue, which is one of several reasons that Germany's per capita exports beat the crap out of the US' and everybody else's.

We're too busy mouth breathing about entrepreneurship and trinket capitalism and investment banking and financial innovation and social media company IPOs and car detailing and pay day loans to care much about making anything actually useful to anyone.

Economies based on manufacturing industry rather than bullshit service sector nonsense, excellent single payer medical systems, the bulk of the population under retirement age educated to a university level and a lot of highly specialised pornography?
