It really doesn't reflect most of the population. Most Americans don't like him. It's just that he and his supporters make a lot of noise.

Yeah, but with all the racial problems in the USA, the situation in Baton Rouge...

I cannot say I have a lot of hope left for humanity. Especially the USA.

But remember that we've gone to Pluto. We have launched a space ship to study worlds 29-49 AU away. Do you know how far that is?
One AU is where we are. The orbit of Earth from the Sun.
And do you know what we freaking did?
We FREAKIN' showed those Plutonians who's boss by straight up sayin' "Ey, that kind of looks like Pluto."
Take THAT.

Baton Rouge is Baton Rouge. Other parts of the US are completely different. The racial dynamics vary wildly from one place to the next -- though I would say race relations have been getting worse lately overall.

If you made each US state an independent country, most of them would be normal-sized countries. And they are spread across a huge geographic area, so it's not like people from New Mexico and Vermont can just hop in the car and drive across the state line to visit each other for the weekend. So when you hear a news story from the US, you can't assume that's just what the whole country is like any more than you would hear a news story from Portugal (which has fewer people than New York, Texas, etc.) and assume that France is the same way because they're both in Western Europe.

Everything from homicide rates to what sports people like can have huge variations from one state to another.
