I am not a US citizen, nor live in the USA. I have spent, as a tourist, less than two months there in aggregate over multiple trips. Therefore, I don’t have any understanding of how USA works, other than what I read and watch (which I don’t do very diligently on this subject).
Can someone explain to me how the country that was guiding light of the world for most of my life (even if not “perfect” internally ever) has degraded into such a mess? I cannot believe that “Trump just happened”. What were the causes that made Trump the strongest president ever? It’s not just that GOP has control over all the houses. It has happened before but there was always internal opposition. Different opinions within the same party. But now, it appears that everyone in the GOP doesn’t dare to deviate from the trumpist line. How did you guys get there?
