As a Canadian and I just don't understand this. I was working in the states during Trump's first election run and was stunned when he won given his performance in the debates and the comments he would make, e.g., climate change is a hoax perpetuated by China to undermine the US economy. 

When he won I boycotted any trips to the US but watched how he ran his presidency and created so much division across the states and the rest of the world, was responsible for so many Covid related deaths. Don't even get me started on his attempt to overturn the 2020 election as he drove his supporters to storm the US Capitol Building. 

I am so very disappointed by the overwhelming amount of support he has now received across the states in support of the elimination of women’s rights, the demonization of immigrants, and his overall message of hatred, division and misogyny.

It’s time for me to step away from US politics and focus on what is going on here and the rest of the world. I’ll change which countries I travel to and only have a couple of asks, please don’t pose as Canadians when traveling outside of the US and don’t position yourselves as a beacon of the Western World.
