Luckily Trump ain’t my president, so I can only share your concerns about the ongoing American democracy backsliding

Yep, it's quickly becoming a Third World country.

Edit for the downvote: Think about it, you elected a tinpot dictator and you allow him to continue eroding your rights. America is a Third World country with very high incarceration rates, a poor health care system, evidenced by the decline in life expectancy, and your education system is in a shambles. Armed guards in public schools? Third World conditions. Face it.
