Non-Americans Are Sharing Their Thoughts On Americans Who Don't Support Trump

"From a European perspective, my view of Americans in general is that they've grown spineless. They have none of the fighting spirit left." "Canada chose to not elect our version of Trump, because of Trump, and we were dangerously close to it being a reality, but he's hated enough up here so ENOUGH people chose to vote for the lesser evil (there's always a certain level of evil with politicians, am I right?), so we do actually have to thank him for that... I feel gross." "Edit: To the Americans replying, if you live in a MAGA area, cannot protest due to any reasons, etc, we understand, and we don’t blame you personally, but please don’t apologize. You probably have good intentions in creating these apology posts, but at this moment, it seems hollow, especially with so many apology posts. If you do create posts, we would like to see some action, even if it’s little (and many of you are doing what you can when you boycott big businesses, call your reps, grill them in town halls, etc.). Stay strong, stay safe, and keep on protesting against President Pedo." "All I ever hear is excuses for why literally nothing can be done against anything, so it's pointless to even try. And that's also why we don't care about their apologies: because it's just words. All talk, no action. 'Well what do you expect me to do?' I dunno, more than nothing. Do anything at all besides just wishing for a magical genie to come and fix your own domestic problem for you." "So even the most progressive American is still at fault to some degree. We appreciate your words of support, but it's not enough. Stop your government, or accept you're part of the problem. American arrogance and conceit are the culprits here."
