    Honestly say this point be is everything the usa deserves. They deserve every pain every heartache and every atrocity they is happening.

    There is no reason this should have ever been allowed. So the checks and balances have been eroded for years by all parties involved and the people are actively letting it happen.

    It is absolutely terrible for many individual people who don’t deserve the horror they find themselves facing but the people en masse are to blame.

    Burn it to the ground and start over. Such a disgrace

      The problem with the idea of burning it all to the ground and starting over is that’s exactly the Republican plan. Destroy so many institutions and cultural beliefs that there’s nothing left to stop them. Meanwhile Democrats are writing a strongly worded letter to the person swinging the sledgehammer.

      The better plan would be to fix what’s broken, I admit it may be too late though.

        If the rest of America is going to let it happen then again that’s what they deserve

        Well the USians have always been content to limp on a broken system, impotent to change it to a modern democracy. It’s not something that happened overnight or something we can blame ‘the Democrats’ for. It’s a failure of the people

      I would like to take this opportunity to remind people that Trump got less than 50% of the popular vote, more than half the country wants nothing to do with him. The GOP has been playing the gerrymandering game to great effect to the degree that their candidates can lose the popular vote but still win the election.
