The US is supersized, from its rambling large urban communities to its legendary regular brilliant qualities. What’s more, its residents? With regards to neighborliness and national pride, we can be somewhat “extra” as well.
Indeed, the political manner of speaking these days could be portrayed as disruptive, however political perspectives don’t regularly saturate casual chitchat or everyday collaborations.
