Surprisingly, less than one out of 12 college students say they're proud to be American; well, 1 of 12 of one political party
Most college students are reasonably well off. So you'd think most would be either very proud--or at worst merely "somewhat proud"--to be an American.
Yeah, you'd think that, eh?
But when College Fix conducted a survey of 1000 college students, they found that some students weren't very proud at all.
Specifically, only 8 percent of college students who self-identified as Democrats said they were proud to be Americans.
By contrast, 74 percent of students who identified as Republican said they were proud to be Americans.
Wha...I'm...shocked! Really! Who could have predicted that, eh?
So maybe the reason so few Democrat students said they were "proud" to be Americans were, uh... just "mostly proud," eh?
Not exactly: 22 percent of Democratic college students responded that they were not at all proud to be an American. By contrast, just 2 percent of college students identifying as Republican said that. And we know a lot of college students rebel against their parents, so it wouldn't be surprising that two percent would say...well, damn near anything outrageous.
A keen analyst notes that perhaps the reason for the low percentage is that lots of college students have never been to a shit-hole country, so have no idea how great America is. This is plausible, but is there any reason to think more Republican students than Democrat students have had the eye-opening foreign-travel experience?
But here's another theory: students who identify as Democrats are far more likely to have Democrat parents. And it's likely that Democrat parents agree with the ghastly ideas being pushed by Dem congress-creeps like Elizabeth Warren, AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar (a.k.a. "the squad"), Kamala Harris, Beto O'Rourke, Bernie Sanders, Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff et al that America and capitalism are evil and have been evil since forever.
It would be no surprise if their kids believed the same pernicious ideas--in which case it would hardly be surprising that they wouldn't be proud to be Americans.
Fortunately there's a fix for this anti-American sentiment among Dem college students: All it will take to make America faaabulous again will be to elect a Democrat/socialist as president. Just as the entire homeless problem vanished when Obama was president.
Cool, eh?
