      I didn’t vote for this everyone needs to stop putting us in a box…many of us did not want this and we’re stuck with these jerks. Alot of Americans are good people we just got taken over. America needs help from other countries.

        I’m an American who works primarily with Canadians. Their opinions are very eye opening.

        The nuance you’re missing is based in American exceptionalism. You are no different than a Russian citizen, stuck under a government you/I hate. Focus on what you and your family can control.

          Yes.

          Your internal team sports are not owed consideration by other peoples affected by the actions of the USA on the international stage.

          I think everyone here would agree that most Americans don’t care who the Russian soldier voted for without all that freedom nor could even name the opposition parties let alone their overall platforms in most of the world.

          America is doing this. A purposeful second time. The parties are the internal machinations.

          There is a significant chance of invasion. The USA is dead to me. It’s people made a choice. Cold Vietnam or Guerrilla Austria? Time will tell.

            Yes?

            Most of us fucking hate it. And I fear we may become the next fascist superpower.

            Our internal politics are probably more important than the entirety whatever country you live in. We spend way too much on our military for you not to pay attention.

            I personally will never support any sort of invasion and won’t give a shit if our soldiers die because of it. Wish the rest of the country would get on board.

              Precisely.

              Cultural bullies.

              Your internal politics are relevant to us. As much as Russias and Chinas is. How much do you know or care about their internal politics and opposition when considering their actions as a country or people?

                Ok? What a pointless opinion. Reality is we, as in the whole world, aren’t going to fix my country by being obtuse.

                  You need to fix your country, not we.

                  We need to prepare for your physical, economic, health, and social aggression under one flag.

                    Your right and wrong. If we become as bad as you think, we will very much be a problem for all of the world. We’ll see in 4 years which way we go.

                    I refuse to sacrifice my family for the zero chance of saving you.

      I have no sympathy for anyone who ever voted Trump, but the point has to be made that until voting is mandatory and they actually hold genuine primaries that allow voters to have a say, it’s taking things too far to blame every American for this outcome. The last few presidential elections have been laughably thin pretenses of democracy.
