Our country is being run by traitors and con men. We need Nuremberg style trials after they are out of power.

Edit: This is my first comment to blow up this hard. Thanks all for the awards!

The US are a joke. When it was about overthrowing a Democrat government with the benediction of Trump, a few thousand people almost succeeded. Now for a fascist government people are spineless.

Your president breaks laws every day without any check and balances. He betrays every alliance concluded with foreign countries when he's not being openly hostile towards them.

You had the Epstein files that in a normal democracy would have been enough to impeach your president. It never happened.

The orange turd will get away with it and all of his billionaires friends and family members too. Unless a real popular and democratic uprising happens justice will never be served.

The Orange Turd is untouchable. Their Supreme Court ruled that the President has complete immunity. It was decided that nothing will happen to him before he even took power again. And the Americans aren't going to rise up, their government has successfully domesticated the population.

The United States spent decades preaching to the rest of us about democracy and "freedom" just to turn around and reinvent the monarchy. Absolute hypocritical farse of a country.

try and fight a government when thats exactly what they want. we either fight peacefully till the fight is possible. or we get slaughtered like sheep because were labeled as traitors. we can barely afford bills. health insurance. food. gas. and what can we do? get shot to death by the police? kidnapped by ice? how about lynched by the kkk. and what about those who can't live without basic needs? the elderly? children? if something were to happen now my family would start to die off. meds, power, water. gone.

we hate this more then you think. but what can you do when you have a knife to your throat? cameras on your garbage and mail trucks. and on every street corner. we are in a dark time. and many realize that we cant just stand up...

I'm not even saying these things as an insult to the average American. I'm just making an observation, and the truth is that your country has successfully engineered a situation where it can easily quell major resistance. You mentioning barely affording bills and police violence is a testament of that.

Unfortunately the system has bent over backwards for Trump, I don't think you're going to be able to just vote your way out of this one. Not without some major changes to the system itself. And I think sooner or later, a fight is coming whether you guys want it or not.
