No matter what happens, I believe the author is correct. Europe will not trust the US in a long time. Trump actually has managed to destroy the image of America in the entire world, in a few months.

    Trump’s presidency has made me lose respect for America. I haven’t lost respect for every individual American; many voted against this. But the majority either voted for it or didn’t care enough to vote against it.

      I don’t want to be an election denyer but I find it outlandish that:

      1: he won every single swing state

      2: people voted dem down ballot but not for Harris

      3: the voting machines were connected to starlink

      4: many reports from people saying their votes were not counted

      I don’t think he won fairly. I believe majority of Americans do not support him but there’s been big money backing him for years. Unfortunately we didn’t have any rules in place for such a scenario. (Other than 2A but good luck against tanks and fighter jets)

        @FilthyHookerSpit @Freshparsnip the thing I find weird is that not a single county flipped red to blue, but 88 flipped blue to red. Just demographic changes would usually mean one almost-blue changes hands. All one way hasn’t happened since Hoover, so you’d think, from that, that Trump had a MASSIVE margin.
