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.

    Here is where you american people have forgotten something extremely powerful and potent, that democrats have always had, but the opposition has not:

    Standing together. Solidarity. Unity. Strength through numbers. Unions.

    America is fundementally a very individualistic society, but people with our values know that true power comes from standing together. Build friendships which can evolve into alliances. Organize, even without established party involvement.

    We are many who will help, even outside your borders. We may be across the atlantic, but we sure as hell will argue your case no matter what.

    All the years I’ve spent on social media, I’ve argued right along with you against MAGA. I’ve helped as well as I can. Many Europeans have, and will continue to support you.

    Maybe we just need to be more organized. To create real underground alliances. Help you in any way we can to make actual changes. Shit, I’ll gladly write to my representative right now and tell him how I believe our foreign policy should be.
