    He’s talking broadly, to Americans. Which you and I are. And he’s right, we deserve this. As a country.

    As an individual, neither of us do, since we fought and voted against him. But that’s not what OP was saying. He wasn’t addressing you specifically, but our nation in the second person.

      nope, it’s the usual European smug superiority complex I see all over Lemmy, as if they don’t have the same problems there (not to mention have had in the past). They can enjoy gloating until the same thing happens in their country, which won’t be long.

        You could be correct.

        However, Europe’s “right” is America’s “left”.

        The political situation might be semantically similar, but the political policymaking is a vastly different situation between the two.

        Europe, universally, believes in healthcare as a right, for example.

          It struck me reading your comment that there is literally nothing that all Americans believe in “universally” and that makes me super sad.
