      When America gets sick, the whole world coughs.

      Sadly we’re all in the inside of this one

      From the outside I’m mostly concerned about the future of the NATO alliance. Trump threatening to annex NATO allies wasn’t on my bingo card.

      For someone with family ties in Ukraine, being on the outside is still incredibly terrifying. Let alone that Muskfuck is now promoting AFD

              The posts you reply to have been deleted, but I’m assuming it’s talking about “taking responsibilities about the people’s vote” based on this single quote…

              From a foreigner perspective it’s hard to imagine how a federal election is perceived for Americans, because your country is so big with so many states that have completely different mindset and economics.

              In Europe we have a shared parliament that works on making compromises on some topics, but I guess a global referendum would be a huge mess too.

                Frankly the whole thing needs an overhaul. Between land having more of a say than people, a structure for congress that hasn’t appropriately resized, FPTP voting… Its a mess.

                You can easily end up with the tyranny of the minority as a result.
