    If only voters had some sort of warning. Like if he went around saying he wanted to be a dictator during his election campaign.

    So his first run at this wasn’t enough for America to see Trump is hugely unqualified? He doesn’t want to be a president, he wanted to stay out of jail. Then he got a taste of real power and he wants to be emperor with unlimited power…

    Walk the old fuck to a jail cell and fix your country.

              Americans: “THIS IS LITERALLY THE SAME COUNTRY!”

              I understand the education is bad there, but at some point we gotta recognize that there is a difference in how we view personal accountability when it comes to intelligence. Theres definitely a cultural difference there. I notice a stark difference between American comprehension and those of us at home, and I’m from Alberta.

            You are in a group named ‘fuck the USA’.

            Go masturbate somewhere else.

                I’m not locked in here with you; you’re locked in here when me.

                Oh. You’re one of THEM.

                I get it now. I’m sorry.

            I absolutely loathe our government. But I’m not stupid. I can see theres a stark difference between what we’re doing and what the fat bloodthirsty morons in burgerland are doing. Your point is absolutely indefensible. Your country is declaring war on other countries and building concentration camps you fucking buffoon.

                Yeah I’ll continue to be mad and insult idiots when they’re doing dumb and horrifying things. I think thats a pretty reasonable response to that.

    He is going too far with powers the president doesn’t even have. Like trying to legislate through executive orders.

    I’m sure he’ll back off, if you ask him nicely. There will totally be free election at the end of the mandate. You’ll be fine.

    Majority of voters say Trump is going too far with presidential power

    Uh huh.

    And what do they plan to do about it?

    He isn’t gonna stop himself.

    You knew exactly what you were voting for, America. Enjoy living under fascism. Maybe you have no health care, old crumbling infrastructure, cheap and inadequate public schools. But hey, you’re free to carry a gun!

    I am totally surprised that every citizen and well-known US politician is scared of Trump. They must have known Trump read every book Hitler ever wrote. And today he is following page by page.

    Poll 765389 stating the obviouse on Trump. Now what? He doesn’t care. He’s in the game only for himself. How many polls before real cracks appear?

    That’s a shame. But only for those who didn’t vote for the clown.

    Those that chose the clown as well as those who chose to stay home, it’s not a shame at all that they’re getting what they voted for.
