    My uncle is in terminal heart failure, but I can’t take my mom over to see him because I’m a very androgynous looking lesbian. I’m legitimately afraid to go to the US.

    Most of the Americans either voted for this mess or could not be convinced the Democrats were worth voting for.

    Hope they have the day they voted for, or didn’t.

    I feel sorry for the Americans that actively voted against this. However, at the same time, that’s as far as I’ll go. I don’t feel like Americans are standing up for Canadians either. I have friends that are Canadians that became American citizens that say things like: “oh that 51st state stuff? you still on that? we forgot about that a long time ago”.

    I feel sorry for the Americans who didn’t vote for him, but it’s just too risky to visit the USA any more.

      2 out of 3 Americans did not vote against Donald Trump. That is a high enough percentage that I wasting time trying to figure out what third to feel sorry for.

        Which means that 1 out of three did vote against him. Those are the people I sympathize with.

        Not to the mention the collective nothing the entire population is doing about it.

        Sorry - they DID stand around en masse a couple times about it. So not technically nothing.

            The next chance to do something will be in November.

            If anything less comes out of that than a Dem House and Senate that immediately moves to impeach both the President and at least one SCOTUS judge, the entire country is a permanent write-off for me.

              the damage is done, dems will recieve the blame if they get back in the house. i dont think the senate will have significant challenges until '28, which is why schumer and the likes banked on opening the govt again.

    Their god-king, Trump of the Narcolepsy, said America doesn’t need Canada.

    I’m glad this is coming true and is working out so well for them.

    I’m doing my part and not buying US products or produce (haven’t for months) and have zero plans to ever visit the US again.
