Rules:

  1. Try to keep the political or Trump-related content to a mild torrent.
  2. Reliable sources only.
  3. Articles are good. Self-posts or blog posts by professionals or journalists are fine. Memes or random blogs, no.
  4. Post title must match the headline. Edits for clarity are fine.
  5. Don't be a jerk.
  6. No racism, no bigotry, no spam.
  7. Be productive.

MODERATORS
 

A majority of people surveyed had an overall negative perception of the U.S., marking a steep decline from last year. America’s reputation took a particularly massive hit in EU countries — perhaps unsurprisingly, as U.S. President Donald Trump has called the bloc “horrible,” “pathetic” and “formed to screw the United States.”

It's not bold and ignorant when you're demonstrating it

You know what they said in 1945 in Germany? "I didn't vote for him", "I didn't know", "I was just a part of the system", "there was nothing I could do".

You claim less then half voted for Trump. Of those voters there are now many with regret. That makes most unhappy with Trump. But no one does anything. But maybe the time isn't there yet, maybe there's time when he turns the US into a North Korea style dictatorship. Waiting for things to solve itself also helped for Germany during the 30's right?
