Europe's POV

Apparently, some Europeans are "shocked" by the outcome of our presidential election on Tuesday. So a Brit, Konstantin Kisin, wants to explain to them how that outcome is consistent with who we are. 

Why should this British citizen have special knowledge of the American character that the rest of Europe doesn't have? He doesn't say. 

But maybe it could help us to hear how we look to him from across the pond. He has ten points to make about Americans:

1.  We want to be the best 
2.  We don't like the idea of managed decline 
3.  Inflation has driven prices sky high
4.  We don't resent success but are inspired by it
5.  We love immigrants who come legally
6.  We reject DEI because it is racist
7.   We know jihad when we see it
8.  Being very practical, we care about what works, not what sounds good
9.  We reject the negativity of wokeness
10.  We know that the price of freedom is self reliance, and we pay it gladly
