    It is Treasonous for the President to not uphold the Constitution.

    The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or the rights of individuals to speak freely. It also guarantees the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

      How many times has police been used to stop peaceful protests?? Lmfao. America is the land of the free as long as you have money. If you don’t have money, you’re guilty.

      But you’re not wrong

      First, he can’t read anything that doesn’t praise him which is then traitorous.

      Second, 76 47, no 96 47, no 187 … Oh you know what I mean.

      You’re quoting the constitution like it means anything to them.

        No, I’m quoting the Constitution because it means something to me, and maybe to you as well. I’m not talking to them.

        “They” will only accomplish their goals when enough regular people go along with it. Conversely, the Constitution will continue to have meaning as long as enough regular people are still invested. Despite some serious cracks and strains, it is holding up so far. I hope it continues to do so.

          The Constitution is soft on crime! Thank you for your attention to this matter

    For Americans, for the rest of us, we can confidently say, you failed to win a war you started for no reason at all, your country has become an utter failure, no one can trust a single thing coming out of your country, from the food, to the media, to the worlds of the president, absolutely nothing is trusted with the american seal of approval, your tech industry is just an extension of the goverment now, so can’t trust that either.

    I’ll give you one thing tho, you are unifying the world in mockery of your sad pathetic actions.

      As an American, I totally agree. I am at a loss as to how we got to where we are so quickly, how it can be fixed, or what I should do as an individual. Feels like a slow motion train wreck that was easily predicted and warned about, yet nobody changed anything to avoid it.

      The most frustrating thing is that writing my representatives in government, voting, and protesting all seem completely ineffectual.

        It cannot be fixed. If you eventually come back and try to repair things, you’ll find we (Europe) have replaced your products (from tech and culture to friendship and security) with much better local alternatives.

          Good, we deserve it. Whether we take responsibility and attribute the consequences to our actions is a big unknown. Hopefully we can fix ourselves internally at some point so we can at least try reconcile with the world.

        I’m gonna shoot straight with you: USians haven’t been protesting nearly enough. Like not even remotely close. You all need to be out there, striking, organising.

        Like, dont get me wrong, we want to like you guys again, you just need to get the exterminator in and exterminate the rat infestation you have going on.

        Unfortunately beyond another assassination attempt, which isn’t the best option, its gonna take your politicians growing a fucning pair and removing him themselves, they have the system to do it and he sure as fuck meets the requirements.

        You all also need to get the fuck out and vote them out next election, dont listen to the bots saying “stay home” go out and vote the Nazis out.

        Here’s how I see it, if you dont vote, you dont get to bitch about the government.

        Please don’t fix it, the world will be better off without you being able to act in charge. You have objectively been a force for evil my entire life and long before.

        Let your global reputation and power forever be damaged.

          To be clear, I don’t mean “fix it” as in restoring our reputation or power. We need to fix ourselves internally. If you think we have been a force for evil in the past, imagine how much worse it could be if we continue in the direction we are sprinting now. That is why we need to fix ourselves.
