There are always exceptions to the rule but I cannot judge over the internet if that applies to you. But in my experience the majority of US citizens (or Russians or Chinese or even Japanese) who move to Europe as adults ultimately do not respect its culture (even if they are absolutely certain they do) and don’t quite get it. We have a very special unique cosmopolitan thing going on here, and the more US people etc. come here, the more that will get watered down to become more hick-y. And if Trump wins it could even get very uncomfortable because not everybody will have the courtesy to ask you if you voted right before punching you.
