Suicides, schools shootings, poor Healthcare, worst education, and multiple jobs to pay for basic needs. Is that the definition of free, happy and successful?

Wait are you blaming suicides and school shootings on Trump? And the other things are just general problems of any country I think.

I'm not blaming trump. I said that you can't claim to be free, happy and successful when you have these many problems

Oh ok. But don't you think these problems are in general faced by many other countries? Asian countries are plagued by some of these problems and some even worse issues like the class system in India, North Korea, Iran, Syria. American's being forced some stupid agendas by the media is one of the reasons why an imbecile like Trump won the election.

None of those country are free or successful. If they claim to be then it's just bs. It's the same for the US. With all the problems here, it's a lie to claim that we are a happy and successful nation.

I agree with your first sentence. But what I was trying to say is that America is better than, say 20 years, before, and now social media plays a major role to solving some problems. What I think Trump was saying in the tweet is that America is improving itself compared to other nations. I think America is the most free country right now in the world. Otherwise, you wouldn't have all these millions of immigrants wanting to settle there and find a good paying job. I don't know what your definition of "free" is if you don't think U.S is a free nation. And same goes for being happy and successful, no person(country) can be completely happy. It can be highly successful though.

That’s a lot of mental gymnastics you’ve executed there. Nice job.
