Ha! World Cup visitors are still losing it over everyday America here is another round of things that have them wide eyed and posting nonstop:
Self serve ice machines in every gas station and fast food spot. Europeans are filming themselves filling cups the size of their heads while saying this is witchcraft. One guy from Spain called it the most American invention ever.
Texas Roadhouse with the endless fresh bread and cinnamon butter. Visitors are clearing out multiple baskets before the entree even arrives. They just keep bringing more? For free? I am never leaving.
Pharmacies inside grocery stores. Walk in for milk walk out with prescriptions shampoo and a birthday card. A French fan said it felt like one building solved my entire to do list.
Massive parking lots everywhere. Stadiums malls even restaurants have seas of asphalt. People from dense cities are shocked you can actually park for free without circling for an hour.
All you can eat buffets and bottomless brunch. One Korean visitor posted from Golden Corral: I ate for three hours and they smiled at me. This country runs on abundance.
Recliner seats in movie theaters with huge screens and buttery popcorn the size of buckets. Visitors are comparing it to flying first class on the ground.
Sweet tea so sugary it makes your teeth hurt in gallons. Southern hosts keep refilling it and fans are politely pretending they can handle it while secretly vibrating.
Drive thru car washes that are basically theme park rides. Lights soap shows and your car comes out sparkling in 5 minutes. A Brazilian said even my car feels American now.
Amazon deliveries the same day or next morning. Packages just appear. One German posted a timelapse: Ordered at midnight here at 9 a.m. What is this sorcery?
Roadside attractions and random giant statues. The Worlds Largest Ball of Twine giant roadside dinosaurs or a 50 foot cowboy boot. Visitors are detouring for selfies like it is the Eiffel Tower.
Tailgating culture before games. Grills games music and strangers sharing food in parking lots. International fans are getting adopted by locals with brisket and beer.
And the random how yall doing today? small talk from cashiers Uber drivers and hotel staff. Many say they expected cold or rude instead they are getting genuine warmth and hope you enjoy the match!
At the end of the day we Americans do not always realize how much these little things stand out. We grew up with the scale the convenience and the casual friendliness so it feels normal to us. Seeing the world light up over it reminds us how lucky we are and makes us even prouder to share it with all of you.
Keep sharing your reactions visitors. This is the good stuff. 🫶🇺🇸
In all my years of watching the FIFA World Cup, I’ve never seen anything on this level. The USA is putting on the best World Cup ever. If that bothers you, a retweet would be appreciated. 😎🇺🇸
@SecScottBessent you're doing a fantastic job! Quick ?, has any consideration been given to the inequity caused by the Medicare IRMA rates. Those of us that have worked hard and have had some success now face premiums on the Medicare benefits at an inequitably high rate. TY
@karolineleavitt you are awesome!!!! Thank you for one more press secretary meeting before maternity leave. God bless you and your growing family. Wishing you a happy and healthy birth!
JUST NOW: President Trump and @JacquiHeinrich share a heartfelt moment reflecting on the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
HEINRICH: "Thank you for your leadership in the moments afterward and for coming on and giving the country the strength to not let those who would wish to harm us stop us from our pursuit of our liberties."
TRUMP: "Let's not let people like this change the course of our country."

I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country
