    How can someone speak so boldly when they know nothing of what they speak? Unless they’re a troll

        I try not to make bold claims about anything I don’t actually know. If you think US citizens voted for all the horrible things the US government does, you don’t have the slightest idea of how anything works in US politics.

          Have you checked who the fucking president is? Yes, I do think US Voters are masochists. Very much so.

            So when less than half of the country voted for someone, that means the entire country voted for him? That’s exactly what you’re saying.

                  More than half of everyone who voted did so for Trump, and people who could have voted but didn’t are complicit.

                    Your knowledge on US politics is based on memes. Trump won the popular vote by a very small amount, less people voted for Trump in this election than people who voted for Hilary in his first election. Even if everyone did actually vote for him, it’s pretty clear that those people are severely misinformed and are therefore being taken advantage of. What is happening in the US is tragic and the amount of people that can be blamed is much smaller than the entire population.
