    America is displaying an extreme mental illness epidemic. It isn’t just the nazi party and fanatics either. Americas Liberals are also mentally ill; supporting genocide but can’t achieve universal health care, maternity leave, child care, cheap higher education, etc, etc… all of these things indicate extreme corruption and sociopathy permeating American society and politics.

    This isn’t something that the world will forget or forgive in 4-8 years. Even if Democrats were to win in a landslide, and prosecuted thousands of republicans and business leaders for their crimes and corruption — all spending the rest of their lives in prison — the world would keep America at arms length for multiple decades.

      That’s because you had goodwill, and now it’s used up.

      I mean we (I’m in the EU) do/did business with China and Russia (autocratic dictatorships), but that’s it. USA will have to play by the rules now, no more handouts.
