As a Canadian, I live in the apartment above the crackhouse. It’s way too close for comfort. At any moment, the crackheads might blow it up and take us all with them.

Imagine how the other 77% of the people who didn't vote for him feel? Only about 45% of our population came out to vote while an insane amount remain apathetic or hold outs because their extremist views aren't being met on either pole.
If they continue at this rate, this "administration" is going to make McCarthyism look like golden years. Liberals blame the Democrats for being too soft, the Dems blame liberals for being too angry and apathetic, conservatives just unite their side under the repackaged fears, ignorance, and lies.
US system is as bizarre to me as our system is probably bizarre to u. Here you get fined if u don’t vote; Parties choose their leader; elections are called by govt to fall on a Satdy that avoids grand finals & bad weather; we have preferential voting & a commission that oversees the entire process
Our founders rejected the Parliamentary system intentionally. No doubt thought this was better. They were afraid of factions,tho. If they’d just been a wee bit patient we could be lower Canada right now 🍁🇨🇦.

I guess the main difference is your forebears fought a revolution against the monarchy while we just put up with them, slowly evolving & adjusting to circumstances.
Here’s hoping it’s your Republic & you can keep it!
Every election cycle the Republicans warn of illegal immigrants voting, tampering, and other b.s. to get their votes in. The Democrats refuse to work with Liberals so half their voting base is on standby with arms crossed. We've long been a conservative nation, but now both parties are against us.
