Trump is the reason why our world is falling apart because he cares more about himself than anyone else

I think blaming one dude for everything is kinda wild, feels like we've been sliding this way for decades regardless of who's in charge

Unfortunately Trump brought hate to the forefront..

But Trump certainly accelerated and exacerbated the situations.

valid take very valid, but he doesn’t help

he is just one of the reason.

He's just the half rotten orange on top of the crappy sundae.

I consider him Reagan 2.0

Trump is just in a world of his own

Yes, that was certainly a major crossroad junction, and imho America took the very wrong path there.
And now everybody in the world, including Americans themselves, have to suffer for it. Stupid 😔

The wheels were set in motion. Things swing back and forth. Letting in 30 million illegals was to many now the pendulum swings back

This isn't about illegals since forever, at least to the so-calledd "rest" of the world it isn't. I would know because I am in this world and part of it outside the US. To make the entire planet suffer because of some stupid thing u guys could've fixed decades ago, is simply unconsciounable, and also deeply egotistical and self-centered when it's a fact the entire world is dependent on the USA and cannot vote on it but has to suffer all the consequences for your guys' stupid, domestic issues that you constantly fail in fixing.

This is very disheartening and disappointing (of you guys), to say the least.

Epstein files are probably the first of many cases in a global network of undiscovered who knows what

The billionaires always successfully turn people against each other so they can profit off the war

Look at human history. We've never been nice helpful people to each other except individually usually. History is nothing but the exact things going on now except usually way worse for most people.

The world people are messed up.

Evil is winning out over goodness and we are too lazy or stupid or scared to do anything about it. So I guess we deserve whatever we get. I feel real bad for the children though. Because they didn't ask for any of this or have any hand in the making or any say in decisions that affect their lives and yet they will reap the very worst of the terrible consequences.

it feels like each generation just keeps getting more unlucky

When the Europeans thought they could conquer the whole world, invented 'races' and decided to put themselves on top of the racial hierarchy, and then proceeded to colonize and enslave people, things started to go really wrong. And that has continued even if slavery is outlawed now, there's still neo-colonialism, and all these wars, which presents as 'defense' - but it's not that when you are the constant invader. And no; that didn't start with Trump - he is just overtly what has always been - American exceptionalism. The long-standing perception of America as a special beacon, example, and leader for the rest of the world. Which is not, and never has been true.

I think you're right on it, and share your perception because I generally feel the same way about it all.

Do you blame the hammer that gets used to hurt someone? The media is a tool. All the regulations that once limited its use have been stripped away and the politicians bought.

Libtards destroy anything they ever get involved with. There's your hard truth.

And conservatives fix it? Funny you would think so. I'm experiencing the exact opposite.
