Yes, but do you have to justify yourself with half the Europeans you meet that you're not one of the Trump supporters?
During his presidency, yes. On a related note, when I would speak to someone in the UK during Boris Johnson, he would be careful to inject a bit of "Boris Johnson sucks, Brexit was dumb" to make his stance clear.
Related, they sometimes assume I not only own a gun, but I'm armed at all times like some old west cowboy, depending on how little they deal with Americans day to day.
Oh, so not for your entire life. Seems like it's a little different then.
Got any more goalposts you'd like to move?
How did I move the goalposts? I said from the beginning that it's happened my whole life. If anything, the guy who talked about a few years of inconvenience is the one who moved the goalposts.
If you can't see how you moved them, I can't help you.
