1/2 America deserves that facade to be taken away. It has killed literally millions of people, unnecessarily and unjustly, in the post-WW2 era. It has overthrown democracies, and installed dictatorships, some of which have lasted for many decades. It has brutally exploited foreign workers.
2/2 Now the face matches the character, so much better. America has never not been awful. If you think otherwise, you're just getting got by propaganda. There's no shame in that. It's by far the best and most effective propaganda the world has ever seen.
Embarrassing we have a leader hell bent on trashing not only the American economy, but the world… destroying our trading partners and attacking our allies
As much as I hate Trump I am more disappointed in our ability as a society to recognize a terrible person who should never be a leader of a sandwich shop never mind our nation
I mean it’s a wicked thing right? Not just inept but pointedly meant to dissolve, destroy the idea that America is worth a damn.
It’s Putin’s dream come true.
I've moved into the awareness that this country has always functioned by patriarchal fascism. Majority of my life has been under the delusion that we're a country with free & fair access & elections. J6 & BLM blew up that delusion. Have been learning all I can about the history that was denied me.
The #WhiteRose Protesters were so young and so brave. How they can they rest in peace seeing the triumphant rebirth of fascism in America only 80 years later?
He turned us into a nation of mean, nasty, self-centered pathetic fools. Except we’re not, and we’ve told him today. It doesn’t matter that he wasn’t listening. That’s who he is. Too bad for him.
Reminder
Tramp could've invested his inheritance and followed the law instead of desperate shit to stay out of prison.
Muck could've operated his companies and followed the law.
Zuck and google could've made a decent algorithm as on BLUESKY be as rich.
Maga , evangelicals could've followed Jesus.
tell that to the people relocated to other country's gulags... human rights are at stake, not your nationalistic feelings - which are completely irrelevant - white US women are a special breed
You as a nation gave away your dignity by electing him. And you as a nation are the only ones who can stop him. The world has its eyes on you. Not him. You. The American people. How far will you let him go?
And I do appreciate many of you did not vote for him and are still there fighting this.
Yeah Gurl, but we sure got it back today. Elbows Up! I know that's Canadian but I lived across the Ambassador bridge from them, and have watched hockey my entire life. I feel related. Plus, Canada offered freedom to escaped enslaved people. We love ❤️ you Canada

I’m on a cruise right now and I wear something Canadian-themed every day. The amount of Americans that have approached me to apologize and share how embarrassing it is to be an American right now has far exceeded my expectations. Something needs to be done soon before he destroys the USA for good.
This is for all the MAGATS who VOTED for President Convicted Felon to change direction from President Biden’s administration Cha cha chain chain chain ⛓️💥 of fools how’s your 401kkkk doing While PCF, Master Negotiator is playing golf ⛳️ and 😂 is ass off at his latest acquisition in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦?
You lost that the first time you elected someone who boasted on tape about sexually harassing teenage girls, and separately on tape about getting away with rape, while having several dozen active investigations open against him for just the sex crimes.
Dignity and trust take work to achieve. Once you lose them, you have to work twice as hard to get them back. It will take years to undo what he has done to this country.
That and family. If you’ve been unlucky enough to have close family, loving family, maybe even your parents, go from being “old GOP” types
to cult followers, losing them to THAT man. Grifter, carnival barker,
megalomaniac. Then you know two kinds of immense loss.
You weren’t as beloved as you think before that PoS arrived. The US always contained people like him from the very start.
What people cannot abide right now is that you let him be the president. You let that happen. As a nation. So it’s really as much about you as it is about him.
Indeed,.. cutting a firebreak line AFTER the forest is burning is the wrong time to do it.
The DNC has many opportunities to stop Pedo-Shitler, but they didn't b/c they're the 2nd branch of ONE corrupt 2 party system & only willing to punch SO hard, but never hard enough to endanger the system.
Why are you expecting the democrats to do your work for you? Some are doing it. Not enough, I grant you. But congresspeople & senators will do what you demand if you demand it hard enough. Why you think 100 million voices are not enough escapes me. Be the collective and see what happens
No they won't.
DNC is MOSTLY complicit they won't EVER *DO* anything.
100 million voices are meaningless vs 1%er power, otherwise 1% of the USA wouldn't own ALL the wealth, health, safety, security, opportunity, freedom etc.. (See Nazis)
Only 1 hero has (allegedly) DDDONE anything & he's in jail.
We have a lot of really stupid people who keep demanding unicorn candidates so they don't show up to help stop someone like trump
They sit at home and pout about their choices instead of rolling up their sleeves to help
We really need to fix our schools, or we will be dealing with this forever
And your parenting and your “lead by example” and check your hypocrisy and hubris at the door. Teachers are ready for it. The first step is civics, logic and humanities. Look at Sweden, where they speak better English (as a 2nd language) than much of the US and use US media to teach about ignorance
I’m very upset with my retirement savings. They tell us to save for retirement and then they come in and intentionally blow it up. They should be jailed.
Oh, I don't know. I find being reduced to the status of vassel of a kleptocratic dictatorship whose economy is smaller than that of the third largest U.S. state to be refreshing. And we're totally pwning all those smug so-called allies with their free health care and workplace safety rules.
I've never been so embarrassed and ashamed of being an American. Not in a million years would I have thought I would feel this way about my country that I love so much. He's ruined us.
It's very hard to get your dignity back after it's been pissed on and walked over by willfully ignorant people, who should know better, but see a chance to make money, even if it costs others everything.
You're confusing dignity with pride. I don't think the world has seen a lot of dignity coming out of the US in decades but Americans just finally started eating some humble pie
It's fucking like, we already got out of rehab with going from GHWB to Obama, and the world welcomed us back warmly. Now we've gone and broken out of the halfway house (again!) because it turned out to be an insecure Ronald McDonald House run by a clown.
Actually, no. Your protected parks and lands will prove to be the worst. Once he sells off your national parks to private investors, you will never get them back. The entire world will be poorer for it.
I might suggest our moral and ethical compass and the life and livelihood of disappeared Black and brown persons ranks higher, but why quibble ranking national mortal sins among friends?
Since I found out about the Gaza genocide during Obama and Obama’s biggest international terrorism campaign, I separated my own dignity from the zero dignity that our government has.
Clever, but I would say due process under the law is the most fundamental right they have now seemingly stripped. “Oh, but only for undocumented people.” That’s just step 1.
No one can steal your national dignity, but recalibrating from American Exceptionalism is just as necessary as dealing with Nazi Aryan Supremacy was. Which, come to think of it, may very well be the underpinnings of American Exceptionalism.
No it's not. "Dignity" is just a word when people are getting sick and dying from preventable diseases, losing their retirement money and dying from miscarriages. What's your problem?

Rapist to the core.
Yet putrid and north korea get a free ride..
Beyond embarrassing
Although, I fear the next move will be NATO becoming NOTAm
The worry is he needs to progressively do more and more ludicrous things to stay in the news. So god knows what awaits us in the next 3y 8m🫣
The US is now a reality TV show.
It’s Putin’s dream come true.
A burner forest comes back stronger - that’s what we’re facing!
He was convicted of 34 FELONIES, RAPE, 2 IMPEACHMENTS, nearly 1 Million DEAD since the first term.
He didn't steal anything from us.
We gave it away.

But yeah, that's pretty freaking high up there on my list too.

Nations and citizens rightfully doubt USA motives, sanity and now durability.
The Era of America is Over.
#democracyisdying but we WILL bring it back!

Got too comfortable, things are too easy for too long and then people become vulnerable to forgetting how and why things are the way they are.
We let this happen.
And now we gotta fix it, but it’s an us problem too.
We have to do better moving forward.

And yet, many Americans still can’t see the harm.
I have faith that the US will fix this.

Our national mental health is second worst.
Cheers!
We are either the laughing stock or the hated bad guy to the world. It's either or and many times both at the same time.
The rest of us have to maintain our dignity, even if our country isn't maintaining its own.

Trump is having a battle of the realities
He is winning so far but only because he hasn't seen the visuals of the HANDS OFF alleys
Protests all over the country today at noon. Find one, turn off your phones and HIT THE STREETS!

Sorry.
Then the USA went large and we realised that we are mere amateurs.
The world is watching and wondering what the American people will do about this.
Dump tRump NOW!
The maj of white voters GAVE IT AWAY when they voted FOR him — the. only. racial group of voters whose maj (who voted) did.😶
Twice.
No dignity remains in this situation.
