I’m getting quite strained from the sentiment I’m gathering from people who possess a level of cynicism to where, they believe all Americans deserve what’s happening and been happening. I don’t agree with that.

There are 75 million Americans, who tried, really tried to get out there and prevent what was to come. We just didn’t expect to be outnumbered by two million more people. But I think it’s unfair to say that those 75 million americans who tried to prevent the floodgates from opening, deserve this. Because they don’t.

There are other countries out in the world right now, who have just as bad leadership if not worse. Should we just assume the people there deserve it? No. Because there are probably people who are likely against their corrupt leaders. America is no different in that field.

We will try again come mid-terms, provided there are mid-terms. Hopefully the 77 million americans who did in fact vote for trump, have gotten enough of a wake-up call, that maybe their poor judgment and poorer decision making wasn’t as good as they thought. Because it is they that have damned us to this mess and we know it, we’ve seen it.

But don’t get this idea in your head that every American endorse the idea that we like what we have.

    I am Danish, and I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. I refuse to let borders decide loyalty. I know the vast majority of americans on this platform, stand fully behind our values.

    I appreciate every single apology, and I welcome it, and I fully understand and realize that you had nothing to do with any of this lunacy. But I also urge you to be careful. Because the extent to which you disagree with your countrymen is extreme.

    I am speaking as someone who saw this far away. I sold my investments in the US when he was elected in 2016. I know you are not stupid either. But I see you calling him a fascist, a rapist, a child molester… All of which may be true. But what will you do when he is standing at your door?

    They are carrying weapons. They are deploying armed forces in the street. They are dismantling all the institutions you stand for before your eyes. They hate the weak, the colored, and those they consider less than them. They will soon begin to take away your ability to vote. Do you not see it? Have you woken up? Whatever rules and regulations you think keeps him in check are crumbling before your eyes.

    You need to start considering your options under the second amendment. You need to fill your pantry. You need to build lasting relationships with people close to you that you can trust. Right now your bully is mostly targeting those he considers weak outside his borders. Where will he look next? Where will the Trump who replaces him look?
