Trump threatened it would be “very dangerous” if he were jailed over the new charges he’s likely facing, citing the “passion” of his fan base.

Sounds like copium to me. We have a few good things going for us, but to say we’re far and above every other country is insanity.
That depends on what domain and what metrics we’re talking about. The US is by far objectively the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, which is nothing to scoff at. American military is far above and beyond the capability of other nations.
I wouldn’t say we’re a shining city on the hill that should be an example for everyone, we certainly have our issues, but we shouldn’t overlook the domains where we are successful.
Like I said, there are some things we do extremely well. Sharing the wealth of the country amongst the citizens of the country is something we fail at miserably. My personal favorite thing is the first amendment to the constitution because I happen to value freedom of thought. Another thing we tend to do really well. Our culture also has a certain resilience that I appreciate. I only hate on America because I know what it could be if there was collective pushback on the oligarchy that seems to have so many of us in a trance.
Did not say the US is “far above every other country”, only that we are the most successful country in the world, on average, and by multiple metrics, but not all metrics.
