“ Though relatively average by global standards, the 16% of Americans overall who said in 2017 and again in 2018 that they would like to permanently move to another country -- if they could -- is higher than the average levels during either the George W.

That’s a significant jump, but being globally average does not fit the narrative you’re trying to portray.
