But you can be mad and still love someone.

    It’s not a matter of simply waiting out one bad president and then expecting everything to go back to normal.
    It’s naive to think that there isn’t an enormous fundamental public sentiment in America of everything that Trump and current day Republicans represent.

    The rest of the world no longer trusts America and has been spending that last few years forging new friendships and alliances.
    It will take generations to come back from the damage America has done to themselves over that last decade.

      You won’t come back from what trump did the last two years, ever.

      That post WW2 rush just went away, like the magic smoke leaving an expensive processor that was pushed too hard.

      IMO you can only aim to be a normal country now.

      And it will never be completely the same. The amount distrust towards everything that is American like tech, products and politics has never been this high. It finally opened Europe’s eyes to see that it needs to be less dependent on America.

      Fuck that, sanction them out of existence and balkanize them while they’re weak. Like 30% of the country wants to invade and annex Canada. Are you guys fucking awake??
