If you are a liberal and read this and think this is good, you have problems. When a Rep writes a cookie-cutter article just like this one (which happens every time a Dem gets POTUS just like this guy is doing), and Reps read it and think it is good, they have problems. Very little in this article is not bias spin. I'll give one example even though I know it won't help the DR lib kids on here who have no ability to be objective.

"What happened to the proud proclamation that America is this great melting pot, where there is opportunity to build a better life for anyone who dares to seize it?"

What happened to the melting pot is an easy answer. First, you have to understand what it actually meant when it was coined. It meant that no matter where you come from, in America you would reform into the American culture and America would enable this for you, and your inclusion would make America a more tolerant country for different cultures. Our laws and freedoms allow you to join this country and become part of it. So, where did that start going wrong? Well, the Jim Crow era caused a lot of changing of opinions but didn't necessarily destroy the meaning of melting pot. It wasn't until cancel culture became a thing, 100ish years after the term "melting pot" was coined, where it changed the very dynamic of what melting pot means in America. Liberals no longer consider America a melting pot but refuse to accept what they have turned America into (which I'm not saying is bad or good in any way, it's just a change). Liberals don't want migrants or even Americans with any kind of identity other than European to meld into an "American culture". What they want is for every culture to be individualized, recognized, and unimpaired. Nothing wrong with that but that's not what a melting pot is. A melting pot means everything melts together into a new, inclusive entity. Liberals are VERY against that ideal. They want cultures to stay independent and be recognized as not being American. For a couple years, it got to a point where extreme liberals were actually demonizing people who cooked tacos or other ethnic food. Liberals started shouting cultural appropriation as a bad thing for every little thing so that people are scared to enjoy other cultures and bring them into one American culture. That isn't a melting pot. That is a bunch of people living around each other for convenience (meaning they want a better life so don't stay in their country but migrate to America). Now, if America hadn't lost its ability to compromise, this wouldn't be a bad thing. All those cultures could work together to shape America into a better place. But that isn't what is happening. All that's happening is cultures trying to stay as independent from America as possible and liberals helping them do it. Again, not a bad thing if that is your ideology. But don't complain about losing our melting pot and the great ideals of what a melting pot can be when your actions are directly contradictory to being a melting pot.
