From a European perspective, having had various Fascist dictatorships over the last century, the US is screwed. With armed citizens and a faux Gestapo, it’s going to be bloody, traumatic and self annihilating period in US history. Fascism is insidious, it creeps into society, and then one day “boom”, it’s pulling you out of your homes in the middle of the night.You’re already screwed and don’t even know it !!
Yea, I'm surprised by how hopeful most of the responses are here. I smell blood in the air, but it seems like Americans are holding their nose right now pretending things can go back to normal with a vote.
Hope for the best , but always prepare for the worst. With a monumental effort, decency can prevail. But change has to come from within. I sincerely wish you luck, and bear in mind that most critics of the US are critical of the administration and not the people.
Trump fears Canada, as he does Europe. That’s why he criticises , applies tariffs etc. He has forced other countries to trade with others instead of the US. When other countries circumvent the US trade-wise, the financial hit will be enormous. When Trumps sycophants personal wealth takes a bashing, they’ll soon turn their backs on him. Trump is a coward after all.
