In the sixties and seventies, possibly encouraged by a delusional impression that they won the Second World War almost single-handedly, many Americans (usually tourists) often gave the impression to other nations that the USA was a country of big-headed, load-mouthed, boors.

As time passed, however, probably because international travel became more readily available to less-wealthy (but better-educated) citizens; and influenced, perhaps, by a post 9/11 realisation that they were not quite as popular as they may have imagined, there were (IMHO) encouraging signs that the national psyche might be becoming more mature.

Obviously, this is a personal opinion; but, it seems to me that policies and principles (or lack of them) espoused by the current POTUS are quite deliberately designed to appeal to the elements described in the opening paragraph of this Blog; and I wonder if I'm alone in finding that rather alarming.
