    The fact that this works just shows that most Americans are idiots and probably deserve what they voted for: policies that will put them further in poverty and loss of their rights.

      FTFY. If you believe that people in your country would be different when put in the same situation then I’m sorry but you are one of the idiots.

        I am American. I’m fully aware there are idiots in most countries. However the ratio of idiots to non-idiots is what really matters.

      Not just Americans. Wedge issues have been a political tool for a while now.

      The Velveeta treason weasel is probably too dumb to realize it’s not even his idea.

      Why would anybody deserve to loose their rights? Because they were gullible? That just seems like cruelty…

        Because it is your democratic duty to inform yourself about who or what you are voting for. Otherwise the system does not work and will eventually get rid of itself. Use it or lose it.

          So by your logic… just the Trump voters deserve it and the rest of the country doesn’t? But everybody is being affected by it…

          Sounds about the same as blaming the Jewish people in Nazi Germany for Hitler.
