It’s complicated, but few on either side of the question like to admit that.
We continue to serve as a powerful symbol internationally of liberalism and democratic government. We continue to maintain a high standard of living and export a lot of valuable things to the world (from scientific research to popular music).
That said, our democracy is increasingly weakened, we fail in some key metrics (education, healthcare), and we continue to struggle with our dark history on race.
We’re a great country, but realistically not the greatest.
