  • This is such a strange take, but a popular one among Americans it seems. There are many more elements to why Trump is president, structural incentives especially money in politics and the specific democratic process that involves the Electoral College, districts etc. I’m not American yet even I know about these… don’t you guys? It’s sad because it seems like you guys are fucked, and have no idea what you did wrong. The burgler is in the house and you all are trying to wrestle down a potted plant.

    It’s also absurd because the US markets itself as the world leader of democracy, but Democratic voters are saying, “Why didn’t you vote with the Party? You shouldn’t have exercised democracy!”

    I know you don’t speak for all Americans, but maybe you can shed some light on this.
