No, that's the tragedy. Americans are smart, kind, and compassionate people as a culture. Nearly everyone who travels here from Europe is surprised by this. But through lifelong indoctrination, careful defunding of education and social programs, a huge portion of the population are uneducated and hate specific groups of people they hardly know.

This isn't the messaging, this is the truth.

The Democratic messaging, largely in response to these circumstances, is that we can do better with time and effort.

You do realize a lot of people travel here too and are accepted and welcomed, and have a positive time too... and it makes Democrats that preach doom & gloom nonstop look like liars. Yes, there are issues... the media likes to talk about the bad more than the good cause it gets reactions & ratings.

If Democrats focus on your last point and that becomes their message to voters to focus on that, then they will be highly successful. Trump gets so much media attention partially because Democrats eat it up... almost like they are addicted to Trump.
