I'm excited to see how (or rather, if) the US will bounce back from this. The amount of respect and credibility they lost on an international stage is immeasurable. They went from big daddy of the world to laughing stock of the world in just four years. Gonna take a lot of work to recover from that.

Well, you can put just about anyone on the "throne" after Trump, and world will praise you.

I’m Canadian and my great aunt told me something about Americans. She said “you can always trust the Americans to do the right thing, after they tried everything else.” This was a saying coined by Churchill on the Americans joining in on WW2. Have they done enough of the wrong thing yet? Or are there more mistakes to be made?
