Well, howdy there internet people, let's bow again. So today we are going to talk about the one thing America does really well.

And we're going to talk about what happens when America sneezes.

We're going to do this because there's a whole bunch of messages

talking about things happening in other countries and it's Americans talking

about the internal politics in other countries. I mean that's rare to begin with. I

mean to get a to get one or two is one thing but to get a whole bunch of them

that's something else because generally speaking Americans aren't super concerned about the internal politics of other countries.

They all have the same concern though. It's a rise of right-wing populist figures. That saying when America sneezes, Canada gets a cold or when America sneezes Europe

gets a cold. It goes to the one thing the U.S.

actually does well. Interestingly enough, that saying originated during the Napoleonic era,

and it was when Paris sneezes.

Europe gets a cold. The US, what do we export?

Yeah, a lot of people draw on a blank right now, huh?

We export culture. It's the one thing that we export. It's the one thing we do well.

We export culture. And that's kind of what that saying really means. I mean, it can apply to a whole

bunch of other things from the economy to, well, everything. But when well everything but when there are cultural shifts in the United States

you see them occur in other places.

And this is everything from music to fashion.

It occurs.

It also occurs with politics.

After Trump's win, you actually saw a bunch of right-wing nationalists win in other countries.

It happened then too.
