AUSTIN, Texas – Young Americans in the Lone Star State told Fox News they were unhappy with the state of the U.S., with one woman saying she was “very nervous” about country’s direction.
“I’m not currently super happy with it,” said Ella, of Austin. “I think there’s a lot going on right now that’s not so great.”
Trevor, another Austin resident, said he was “not particularly satisfied” with America’s state of affairs.
“There’s a lot of headbutting and just overall aggression from everyone,” he told Fox News.
“Honestly, very nervous for the way the country is heading,” Ariana, of Dallas, said. “The economy, the fact that climate change is happening and taking a really big toll, and then there’s a bunch of different things, like our homeless people.”
