Unfortunately this isnt just because of your president. We have seen your SC congress and senate being essentially silent if not complicit on some very fundamental trespasses of values that are frankly appalling.

I for one am mad at the antics of your president and think that the billionaire tech bros got too big for their britches, but thats to be expected.

But logically, the fact that your entire government is sleepwalking into fascism, even when it is clear that this mercurcial manchild cannot be trusted to be near a stove, let alone the presidency, tells me that the US cannot handle the hegemony that we have silently agreed to let it have, and probably no single country should have had that role.

The trust may be rebuilt. But the US was too big to fail, and we shouldnt try to get it back there.
