    Question for all non-US natives. When somebody tells you they are from America do you think the continent or the USA?

      Saddly the US because those fuckers are just so loud and never shut the fuck up.

        And that’s the point of my question, and this change. Trump feels like he won, because he took something away from Mexico.

          Yes, agreed. He seems to regard life as a zero-sum game, in which he can’t win unless someone else loses, so he doesn’t understand the concept of win-win. It’s a kind of cognitive bias which is a serious weakness in someone who apparently imagines himself to be a master of ‘the art of the deal’.
