Except the OP’s point would be much better made by criticizing something the US doesn’t actually do pretty well at.

Wouldn’t it?

It wasn’t criticising anything though. It was a hyperbole, an outlandishly absurd proposition that nobody in their right mind would take seriously. Well, almost nobody I suppose.

Nonsense. Humor and hyperbole are often used to criticize.

No. It would be weakened. The point is America is taking things we’re good at and rolling them back. It loses its point if you pick something we’ve always been bad at.

That seems backwards and ridiculous to me.
