if the US actually re elect him they're fucked
Issue is, the whole world will be effected by it.
Hard to say what would have happened, but I feel like I was pretty much unaffected as an European the last time.
It is difficult to say because you do not observe the counterfactual. I would definitely say we would have progressed more on climate action if HRC had become president. Also, the culture war issues would have definitely played out differently. The Trump presidency also emboldened Putin, which may have affected the situation in Ukraine. But again, in foreign policy so many things happen simultaneously that it’s often difficult to pinpoint direct causes.
In Canada, we've seen a rise in Trump-like politics...
I live in europe currently, and there's been a hard right turn here since trump seriously got on the scene. In france Macron only beat the female french trump by a small margin. In Italy, they've elected a hard right person as their leader, In switzerland, the right wing party is in power. Trump was the first domino to fall and now we're going to be seeing shit like that all over.
but yeah, I was pretty much not directly affected by any of that shit that happened stateside.
If that is the objective truth, then count yourself lucky for being a white, ethno-european, climate denier.
Yeah, probably wasn't great for climate action, but that's true for all conservative politicians not just the crazy ones. How did Trump affect whites and non-whites living in Europe differently?
Stuff and reasons, basically. But actually the worst thing he could do is try to leave or undermine NATO, and ditch Ukraine
