Every foreigner I’ve ever met visiting the US are shocked that it’s nothing like they thought it would be, their media and TV lied to them. It’s a great place.

I think some of you are being very unfair to the gent. You conveniently overlook this bit:
"Despite its enormous – and increasing – failings, it remains (only just…) my favourite place on the planet. Americans, despite what many of their lawmakers’ actions would suggest – are some of the most engaging, interesting, brilliant people you’ll ever meet."
"some of the most engaging, interesting, brilliant people you’ll ever meet.". He obviously ain't met you curmudgeonly bastards!
