America IS Great. Ask Those Who Live in Oppression.

“We’re not going to Make America Great Again. It was never that great.”   Shocking statement from NY Governor Andrew Cuomo.  SHOCKING.

The first thing that came into my mind was a conversation I had with a citizen of Myanmar when I visited there in 2016.  He reveres the United States.  They hold us up as the example of what they want to be.  “The Lady”, Aung San Suu Kyi, was about to take office.  Hope for a better life, a better government, was rampant throughout the four areas of Myanmar that we visited.

Never that great, Governor Cuomo?  Your statement disgusts me. We are a beacon to the world, a light that burns bright to those who have lived, or still live, in darkness.  Your statements are broadcast around the world and live on in social media.  To denigrate the country that serves as a light to those who live in darkness is outrageous. I personally think you should resign.
