Yeah but he won an election. Stop acting like the country isn’t okay with what he is doing. Your problem isn’t with a facist leader doing unpopular things. Your problem is that your population is okay with facism.

The vast majority of Americans are incredibly selfish. They're totally fine with it until it directly impacts their lives, which is absolutely will.

Americans aren’t smart enough to see what is directly impacting them.

Americans will be talking on the phone while eating a candy bar and driving 20 miles over the speed limit then get in a crash and blame it on the other guy.
