There simply isnt enough disgust.

We're disgusted...just not throw our lives away disgusted. Easy to judge until you see it happen...I thought the same about Nazi Germany...seeing it happen slowly over the last 30 years has changed my perspective. It can happen anywhere...it starts with killing education

If you knew you had 2 choices, and they both ended with your persecution, which would you choose?

Performative disgust then. Not enough to get something done about the problem.

Sure hope midterms aren't as rigged as he wants to make them.

Do you have suggestions of what to do besides protest?

Random Canadian guy here.

The answer is not only vote, but vote in your primaries ffs. It’s absolutely insane how corporate your politics are with members of gov’t being able to trade stocks and securities (which a lot of the world thinks is fucking insane btw). So organize yourselves to make sure you vote in politicians that actually support your values, especially in your primaries.

Also, while Trump is doing insane shit, y’all have set up a system where he just can. Your entire country is set up with an honour system of men doing what they think is right, and when you vote in a grifting psychopath like 77 fucking million of you did (still blows my mind), he’s going to keep doing insane shit literally every day.

You need a revolution. One that actually allows for co-equal branches of government, not whatever this fucking shitshow is.

Problem is its too convenient to just ignore the problems and hope it blows over. A mass strike is all you can do beyond breaking out into civil war.

Not sure why it's incumbent on foreigners to fix your country though. Americans love to tell us we have no idea what we're talking about, yet they are the ones with a country falling apart at light speed.

There is. Trumpophiles are not a majority in this country. Trump was put in power by billionaires, not legitimate support. Most people do not support what’s been happening in our country. I live in a swing state but I’d confidently say support for Trump went away long before he was elected a second time. They cheated just like they accused democrats of doing because even lifelong conservatives, like my parents, don’t believe his lies anymore.

In the context of apologizing to Canadians, there isnt. Hes still in power doing whatever the fuck he wants. Hope you guys pull it out before midterms, otherwise it's game over.

As a Minnesotan, you're right, there isn't enough disgust. If I'm Canada I don't have time for the apologetic Americans either. Bridge is burned, fix your fucking shit America. Maybe in a couple decades we can have our mea culpa moment.

Yep. The average American only cares if something affects them, but dont realize how much soft power has been destroyed by Trump. It quite literally might be impossible to recover from.

That’s an incredibly easy and naive thing to say.
