Sadly this is not just the USA, speaking from Europe and Italy.
And we all are in this together because, as WE know, there is no such thing as I and you, but just a we.

dianneartful.bsky.social•43 days ago

Apologies are appropriate but they don’t cut it when humanity is at stake.

suepat.bsky.social•43 days ago

We get that not all of you are MAGGAts, but we REALLY need you people to start working on critical thinking skills.

johngmeadows.bsky.social•43 days ago

Amen!

calgaryrds.bsky.social•43 days ago

NOT accepted. The stupidity, ignorance, and evilness of a majority of American voters will cause incredible harm to the world over the next four years (unless tRump dies). Not forgivable. Your (America's) reputation is shit for at least a generation. Well deserved.

johngmeadows.bsky.social•43 days ago

This needs to be said more often. There is a real "not all men" kind of vibe coming from many in the US these days.

gandydancer1961.bsky.social•43 days ago

Over 1/3 of eligible voters chose to sit out the election because Palestinians or something. I blame them and the MAGA morons for handing this election to a felon.
From now on, anyone who says they didn't vote is shit, don't even talk to me.

mierdogs.bsky.social•43 days ago

Those who stayed home or voted third party because of Palestine piss me off so much! How did they think Trump would be better? Morons.

jano52.bsky.social•43 days ago

And it's the third time! First was Ralph Nader (2000); then Jill Stein (2016); and this time it was a variety of "other" and non-voting. I would argue in each case these voters thought it wouldn't matter. In 2000 and 2016 it did, bigly. And they still did it. Again.

gandydancer1961.bsky.social•43 days ago

Those non voters, or voters who voted for a third party that had no chance of winning, have condemned us all to dog knows how many years of... whatever this is.

erikad115.bsky.social•43 days ago

I dont blame you, I'm just as pissed at my fellow Americans. Think part of the problem is they don't care about the reputation and they should

xhydra.bsky.social•43 days ago

Understandable.

julieanderson01.bsky.social•43 days ago

I don't think the possibility of Trump dying will change anything. The GOP needed his cult to get them over the line. Now that he's been elected (though I'm not convinced it was legit), once he's sworn in they'll probably give him a full pardon and then fully enact Proj 2025. It will still be awful.

raymel.bsky.social•35 days ago

But you need to tell that to more than 77 million voters who put that piece of (bleep) back in office. That's where the stupidity, ignorance & evilness came from & THEY'RE the reasons we were unable to follow the example of what Brazil did with their former president. 74 million voted for Kamala.

innercitysub.bsky.social•43 days ago

JD Vance is as bad snd maybe worse. Ditto for Johnson.

justlindy.bsky.social•41 days ago

Not sorry enough

petere252.bsky.social•43 days ago

We may need to wait 4 years before accepting your apology. Good luck

vtgal.bsky.social•43 days ago

jessterraformearth.bsky.social•43 days ago

Dear John, I'm sorry you believed your own propaganda was true. We knew. Sincerely '..who we are as a nation tossed in the garbage: celebration of diverse coexistence, the open welcome to the oppressed, the promise of inalienable rights for every person, the guarantee of free and fair elections..'

jessterraformearth.bsky.social•43 days ago

Those qualities aren't 'in great jeopardy' from Trump - they were always talked about more than practiced.

The US didn't trip and fall and elect Trump twice.

His election is the result of longstanding corrupt and racist systems that US powers refused to fix.

We wish you well and a good mirror.

yukoncorneliusjack.bsky.social•43 days ago

This will be Amerikkkas lowest point...there are two moments in life, those you miss and those you seize, and Amerikkka fucked up bigly, too stupid to see what was right before their eyes. Oh well, enjoy hell for the next 4 yrs, if not longer.

johngmeadows.bsky.social•43 days ago

What you will have to get used to after Jan 20 when the shit really hits the fan is that most of the world (especially those he screws over) will see Trump as the face, brand and embodiment of America. It wil take a lot of work to overcome the massive stain on your credibility.

raix.dev•43 days ago

Either your election got hacked or the majority of Americans actually wants this - I fear it will have long term consequences

neelkumar3050.bsky.social•43 days ago

Apologies are appreciated but unfortunately because of this election a complete criminal felon rapist is in power. A cabal of powerful billionaires now control the government especially one of them Musk. The control all branches of government including SCOTUS. The world is in a very bad place now🤬🤬🤬

erin08.bsky.social•43 days ago

Truly! I would love the world to know that we’re not all uneducated ignorant pieces of shit.

socalmonk.bsky.social•43 days ago

We're going to have to make this apology again, you know. Likely quite a few times in the next four years.

thecookout.bsky.social•43 days ago

This past election, unpatriotic Trump supporters WILLFULLY gave the car keys to a very angry and reckless drunk driver — with hopes that he would only run over those whom you hate.

Good luck with that. The car is swerving and unsympathetic billionaires are riding shotgun.

Dear Decent Americans

Apology accepted

After all, your PINO is old, suffering from Alzheimer's & has had a stroke.

We understand.

ed4words.bsky.social•27 days ago

Maybe don’t apologize to us before you’ve apologized to your children and grandchildren.

Why aren't 100's of thousands marching on Mara Lago with pitchforks and torches right now? Actions over words.

tashytiger.bsky.social•43 days ago

I agree, I'm always astounded by the lack of action. If this was Australia, every one of our cities would have protests on the streets.

polysiloxanes.bsky.social•43 days ago

I don't apologize for others idiocy. Not enough time in the day, even if I wanted too.

liwill.bsky.social•43 days ago

As a European, let me say this: I watched Pres Carter laying in state and all the people circling around his casket day and night. Those faces! Young, old, serious, respectful. And I rejoiced in the fact that there are plenty of decent Americans around. So there is hope. I hope...

greghasligma.bsky.social•43 days ago

Fortunately “the world” doesn’t use this platform, and you’re just screaming into an echo chamber right now.

tanninenkarri.bsky.social•43 days ago

You are all fucked

heathalvarez.bsky.social•43 days ago

I’m not. I decided to take my leave of the U.S. before the orange shit stain starts his second shit show. I have no desire to live inside the borders of a cess pool filled with christofascist turds, but I wish the non-magas staying in the U.S. to endure what’s coming the best of luck.

tanninenkarri.bsky.social•43 days ago

I struggle not to think that all americans are dickheads.

camnelsonyyc.bsky.social•43 days ago

Accepted.

thomastheone.bsky.social•43 days ago

But the people who put this traitor, convicted felon, and rapist back in the White House, are NOT!

tweeter-n-chief.bsky.social•43 days ago

Are we though? I remember saying this 8 years ago on the other platform yet here we are again. #Demoralizing

mart4luna.bsky.social•43 days ago

Sadly, Biden failed one of the most important assignments. He should’ve prioritised getting Trump convicted in a short time, this was the top priority. Instead they allowed him to run down the clock. Dems need to be more aggressive, they’re dealing with criminals, this is not business as usual.

erikad115.bsky.social•43 days ago

Yeeeah.. butttt that wasn't Biden's fault, no matter how badly rump wants to blame him. It's Garland's fault!

mart4luna.bsky.social•43 days ago

Biden appointed Garland, which was a very wrong choice. Other things could also have been done while they controlled the House in the first years.

teeelle56.bsky.social•43 days ago

Why can’t we stop this?

randompersonfire.bsky.social•43 days ago

Because the establishment is extremely powerful and will do anything to desperately cling to power. (Term limits for Congress would go a long way.)

nerhaugen.bsky.social•43 days ago

And just for the record, a helluva lot of us who might occasionally be at least somewhat *in*decent would also very much like to apologize.

lillnordheim.bsky.social•43 days ago

Thanks!

surf-snow.bsky.social•43 days ago

It's a noble gesture but Trump is not THE problem but a SYMPTOM of the BIGGER problem. A tumor if you will......but the cancer has metastasized. Hope folks are prepared for whats to come over the next 50 years.

rightbrainedleadership.com•43 days ago

Sorry world, I voted for Kamala.

justksmith.bsky.social•43 days ago

Yep, foreigners pay no attention to Trump. We threw him out, but he didn't leave.

bluewarrior333.bsky.social•43 days ago

Perfect.

bearchicago.bsky.social•43 days ago

Well put!

adamjblust.bsky.social•43 days ago

Yeah, I'm not sorry. I did what I could.

Those 10 million Biden voters who stayed home last year? THEY SHOULD BE SORRY.

heathalvarez.bsky.social•43 days ago

It was closer to 6M, but I 💯 agree with you. The other 83M who didn’t vote are worthless turds, but the 6M who voted for Biden in 2020 but not Harris in 2024…they hold the lion’s share of blame for Trump’s victory.

adelfsu.bsky.social•43 days ago

oiydonkey.bsky.social•43 days ago

To be fair - we’re seeing the same trends in Canada and all over Europe. Stable, centric leaders are being shown the door.

tylean5.bsky.social•43 days ago

Dear America, we're so sorry. You deserved so much better.
The World.

heathalvarez.bsky.social•43 days ago

Does it though? Trump won both the EC and the popular vote. I wouldn’t consider a country whose majority voted for a fascist deserving anything good. They voted exactly for what they wanted and they deserve everything coming to them and very soon they will learn that apathy has consequences.

tylean5.bsky.social•43 days ago

Sorry you feel that way.

nimbly-bimbly.bsky.social•40 days ago

I'm not sorry for squat, I did my part.

Egregiously wrong! Sad day for justice

innercitysub.bsky.social•43 days ago

Do what I do. When you hear someone who seems to be a tourist here and speaks English go to them and apologize for what trump has done to the world and will do. If you travel internationally do the same. Once I had young group of Austrian guys laughingly refuse to accept my apology.

mierdogs.bsky.social•43 days ago

If you travel internationally just tell people you're from Canada. That's what my brother did during the Bush administration.

erikad115.bsky.social•43 days ago

That's exactly what I would do, too! Sadly

ginamyhill-jones.bsky.social•43 days ago

Can you guys please figure out a way for the rest of the world to tell y’all apart ?

pandurs420.bsky.social•43 days ago

I feel *slightly* better, knowing that the more dangerous crazies tend to anounce themselves with red hats and 'merica themed garb.

ginamyhill-jones.bsky.social•43 days ago

They sew Canada 🇨🇦 flags on the damn backpacks to travel… always have lol… that’s the FIRST tell…

luciferda.bsky.social•43 days ago

An apology is only good when it includes actions the mitigate the wrong doing.

elainejack.bsky.social•43 days ago

Don't worry - we know ! I won't visit US again until he's gone though which is very sad 😢

david414.bsky.social•43 days ago

There is no other American citizen that would walk away from 34 felonies with absolutely NO consequences!! When karma comes knocking he will have a major price to pay! I only hope it hurts him immensely!!

Nothings gonna happen to him man, karma is a myth along with American justice

karensuew.bsky.social•43 days ago

This is unbearable, John.

gladyskrav.bsky.social•43 days ago

What a wonderful message. I weep for what has happened to our country. I hope we can correct course and restore truth and dignity to our discourse. 🙏

robinfy.bsky.social•43 days ago

I feel awful for the world. They have to suffer consequences & didn't even get a vote. It's so unfair to them. I'm truly sorry world, we Americans failed you.

Please don't turn your backs on us, we may need you to help us correct this monstrosity! 🩷🌼

scicommic.bsky.social•43 days ago

I have nothing to apologize for.

I chose reason, compassion and decency.

It’s not my fault the other 68% of the electorate chose to ignore the last 9 years because they refused to vote for a Woman of Color.

boo.bsky.social•43 days ago

Did luigi write this or the guy who self immolated? Which one of the two decent Americans are you talking about

ianxsmith.bsky.social•43 days ago

Sadly, the damage is already done.

Even if the 'good', normal Americans pull the nation back to sanity, the rest of the free world can't rely on you any more.

We can't afford to trust you.

Very sad, but true.

daviddyck.bsky.social•43 days ago

The decent people of the world understand and will work with you. We are all stronger together🙏🏼

Well said. But, unfortunately, it is who we are. America voted him into office.

yrnlvr.bsky.social•43 days ago

Stupid America (30%) voted him in. 30% voted for Kamala, 40% sat their asses home. 😕

jethro-tull.bsky.social•43 days ago

What you permit you promote.

70-30 for the bad guys.

garygsaenz.bsky.social•43 days ago

And the 40% will likely be the ones who do the most complaining about the outcome.

gladyskrav.bsky.social•43 days ago

If anyone complains to me the first thing I will ask is “did you vote?” God help you if you say no. 😡

johngmeadows.bsky.social•43 days ago

As time passed my guess is more and more Americans will deny ever having voted for Trump.

garygsaenz.bsky.social•43 days ago

We knew what would come our way if Felonious Hitler ever got back in the White House. The ones that sat it out are in for a rude awakening when reality sets in. And they are going to hate it. Fu€k them. 👇
