      Nothing at all. You’re a perfect little angel who is totally blameless. There’s nothing more you could have done or could be doing now to impact the situation even one bit.

        You didn’t answer my question. I think it’s because you are arguing in bad faith.

          What good is discussing potential actions with someone who categorically denies the ability to act? You’d rather feel sorry for yourself and that’s your to decision to make but don’t pretend like your refusal to participate means you’ve caught me in some logical trap.

            Again, no answer. Tell me exactly what to do to stop Trump and I’ll go do it right now.

              OK, buy a gun and shoot him in the face. To make it even easier on you I’ll count an unsuccessful attempt as you following through on that promise.

              I know you won’t because you’ve already admitted that your definition of possible action really only includes comfortable actions, which isnt functionally any different from saying “thoughts and prayers”, but somehow you’ve still convinced yourself that you’ve done everything you can and you’re out of options. The least you could do is admit that you’re too afraid to do some of the things that you could do. At least that is intellectually honest.

              Saying there’s nothing you could do is straight up delusion but hearing that makes you bristle so instead you’re trying to garner sympathy for the situation you’re in as if that absolves you of responsibility to act. Just skip the games and say you’re still holding out hope that one of the easy options (read: accomplished by someone else) will work out so you don’t have to do anything that puts you personally at risk. That’s where I am and it’s clearly where you are too but unlike you I don’t have a mental block preventing me from admitting that to myself. That’s also exactly how all the people from other countries in this thread are telling you that they view us and they are right to do so because it is an honest interpretation of what we are actually doing, unlike your self-pity filled protestations that we’re trying our super hardest, which are clearly bullshit.

              Edit: I’m not a coward he said as he ran away. Classic

                I’m sorry. I thought you were a reasonable person. I was wrong. You are insane. Goodbye.
