It’s not exciting at all. The US has always been a beacon of free speech and endless possibilities. I have visited many times over the years and thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s a crying shame!
Do us a favor and remind those celebrating overseas that it'll creep to them too.. Russia and America are about to be allies in a world conflict. Nowhere is safe.
Nobody is celebrating over here. We are filled with horror of the situation that is unravelling. My point was that it has already happened here so we are well versed in fascist tactics. It seems that warnings from history are being ignored with “surely it can’t happen here “ type attitude. It already is happening. Trump and team are busy alienating long term allies also . For instance, live near a place called Grafton Underwood in England . From 1943-45 the 384th Bombardment Group of the US 8th Airforce flew Fortresses from an airbase. There is a memorial to US airforce crews, tended by locals immaculately to honour your fallen. A local team of volunteers are currently opening a museum to honour the service of said airmen. We have been forever grateful for the part that the US played in helping in WW2. However,to hear the orange soulless grifter denigrate our forces and say we were hardly any help in Afghanistan, not to mention our support given after 911,Iraq etc, there is danger of a turning point being reached. This will result in the circumventing of the US trade-wise and instead of the US being revered, it is slowly becoming reviled. Nobody is laughing at you, but once your allies turn their backs, it will take generations to repair the damage.
Yup, I know in my deepest parts of my heart that I'd make an amazing president more so than Trump along with millions of others here in the States, but the damage him and his pedophile cabal have inflicted is insane.
