Less American - as in giving less of a hoot of previous histories, gun culture, etc.

Not sure I quite follow you. Yes, there is race. But there is also honoring due process and democracy (both, IMHO, cornerstones of American-ness). If you want to lynch someone, that may be historically American, but it isn't the ideal of America. Same with trying to overturn an election (either actively, like voter fraud, or just insisting that fraud existed because your guy lost).

As long as everyone gets to vote**, then the chips fall where they do, you get a peaceful transfer of power, and democracy continues. So did I like Trump winning? No. But he had the EC votes, so he won. Accept it, and hope the nation doesn't die before we get to vote again in four years (which it didn't). To me, that's being a "real" American. You don't always get your way, but you do get a vote.




**A little simplistic, but you probably get where I'm going with this. Dark money, and money in general in politics, are issues.
