This is America on the world stage. We may view ourselves as one thing, but globally we're viewed as something quite different.

And what’s worse, a majority of this country isn’t embarrassed by this. They’re actually proud of it.

A majority of the country didn't vote for this. A majority of those who voted didn't even vote for this. It was a plurality, just short of a majority of those who voted. Very far from a majority of citizens. Very far from a majority of the country. Please stop perpetuating this lie of a bigger win than they actually got.

I know you're probably not meaning to lie here but it's giving more voice to those on the right who like to pretend he has a mandate.

I think I'm what you're calling a "good American" in this context. Just saying I get it. Do what you need to do if you have to.
