People who say America has no culture have never stood barefoot in the green grass of a suburban backyard, with a speaker blaring some country stars\u2019 lyrics about a bald eagle flying over his Ford F-150. <\/p>\n

And to make an American Saturday night more patriotic, an aroma thick with barbecue fills the yard. This is the American dream. <\/p>\n

Recent polling shows that pride in the nation falls along partisan political lines.<\/p>\n

But if the U.S. hosting the FIFA World Cup ahead of its 250th anniversary has taught its citizens anything, it\u2019s that America rocks \u2014 despite its flaws.<\/p>\n

America\u2019s strongest ambassador in 2026: Europeans on vacation<\/h3>\n

Comedian and political talk show host Bill Maher recently said the U.S. is not a perfect country, \u201cbut that\u2019s because the name of our country is America, not Utopia. And the appropriate comparison isn\u2019t to the Eden you might imagine; it\u2019s to every other place on earth.\u201d<\/p>\n

And right now, people from every other place on earth are drooling over things Americans don\u2019t bat an eye at.<\/p>\n

\u201cSocial media (is) flooded with videos of slack-jawed soccer tourists wandering around America positively gushing about everything we take for granted, reminding us what America looks like from the outside, not through the lens of some influencer explaining why watering your lawn is violence. Just regular people looking around and saying, \u2018Wow, these people live like rock stars.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Rock stars because we have ranch dipping sauce, Texas BBQ and single-serving sizes that could feed five children. Because we have Walmart and Costco \u2014 which tourists are comparing to museums \u2014 and air conditioning … everywhere. <\/p>\n

One English soccer fan who even met President Donald Trump while here for The World Cup posted on TikTok, \u201cWe owe America a huge apology because America is nothing close to like what the media tells us. Everyone is so friendly. Everyone is so accommodating, and I\u2019ve honestly had the best time.\u201d<\/p>\n

We owe America a a huge apology, the people of Texas have been the friendliest and most accommodating people I have ever met. I came to watch England in the World Cup to play Croatia and that game was at the AT&T stadium in Dallas. We have had the best time for the entire trip. Part of my heart will forever stay in Texas #texas #dallas #USA #America #worldcup<\/p>\n

\u266c original sound – Oliver Henry <\/section>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If you were wondering whether any video shows just how perfectly European tourists have embodied American culture, there\u2019s a video of a packed stadium singing Neil Diamond\u2019s \u201cSweet Caroline\u201d in thick English accents at a rodeo in the Fort Worth Stockyards.<\/p>\n

World Cup fans from England enjoyed their trip to the Fort Worth Stockyards rodeo #worldcup #rodeo <\/p>\n

\u266c original sound – cowboy_plus <\/section>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Maher argued that, despite America\u2019s flaws, there is still something uniquely attractive about the country that much of the world envies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have more immigrants than the next four countries combined. We have to fight for it, but still have freedom of speech and assembly and trial by jury, and even if you\u2019re found guilty, you can still ask a Kardashian to get you a pardon,\u201d he joked. \u201cMaybe it\u2019s a coincidence, but I think it\u2019s something in the American system and character that we have the highest number of Nobel Prize winners and invented the light bulb, the telephone, the smartphone, the airplane, personal computers and the party-sized bag of extra flaming hot Cheetos.\u201d<\/p>\n

If Maher is right, the recent wave of Europeans marveling at everyday American life isn\u2019t just internet content, but a reminder that many of the institutions and freedoms the Founding Fathers fought to establish remain a powerful draw nearly 250 years later.<\/p>\n
