My deepest sympathies to all Americans, even the ones who support Trump. At the end of the day, they're just victims of the system like the rest. And no matter the outcome of the last election, this was inevitable, Trump or no Trump. At best it could have been postponed by a few years.
I wish it was different, but I can't see all of this ending with anything less than a full blown revolution and/or world war. Nobody wants this and everyone would like to avoid this, but it just doesn't look at all possible right now.
After long decades of enslavement, brain washing, tyranny, and terror, a good chunk of Americans is realizing that there's no world in which this is acceptable or excusable.
In addition, there's finally again a superpower to rival the USA.Whatever your feelings on the USSR or China - there can never be just one superpower, because we've seen what that leads to. I wish it was the European Union, but it looks like the USA was mostly successful in destroying all efforts for Europe to become truly great and powerful. At the very least China is currently more friendly than the USA has ever been. Let's hope they keep this attitude even after America crumbles. That's probably the most optimistic scenario I can think of.
