Let me be the First to speak it out: Trump has ended the American Empire. He has ended Europe’s blind acceptance of American superpower.
America will never again be what it was. That so called beacon of hope that Public relations Geniuses invented and never really existed.
So, yes thank you Mr. Trump for helping us to wake up and thank you for ending the American empire.
And thank you to all your supporters, who voted for you despite them paying the highest price for it.
I’d argue those paying the highest price might be the legal immigrants in the US getting deported, Palestinians possibly having the existential threat against them worsened as Trump approveds of Netanyahu’s genocide without reserves, the Ukrainians having lost the support of the US… With Orban and Meloni at the head of their respective countries and the far-right emboldened everywhere, I think it’s a bit early to feel grateful. Empathy for the victims and wariness that we might be facing the same seem like more appropriate sentiments.
Yeah I wouldn’t be “celebrating” right now when at least half of Europe is falling right into the same type of government: fascist ones.
I am an American. I fucking hate this world we live in now. Everyone is still playing partisan games when the world is actively falling apart around us, and we continue to stick our heads in the sand and say “I know you are but what am I?”
This is actually the real issue, while we look at Trump we have far-right government in the EU, and far-right parties having a significant weight in many countries. So let’s not laugh at US too fast
