    As an American that has to live in the same country as the Felon, that’s a wise move. He’s not really a fan of asking permission, but he is a big fan of authoritarians, especially fascist ones.

      Somehow the voters didn’t see it that way. I just don’t get it how that was even possible. Didn’t the voters already know what kind of person he is?

            Sounds like a recipe for disaster. By the time Americans realize their home land has turned into a tyrannical dictatorship, it’s already too late to fix that. Democracy would have given them a peaceful way to do it, but they didn’t use it.
