To think never again can Americans badge themselves as the good guys

The millions who voted for Trump will go down in history akin to those who thought Adolf was a great guy.

Those sanctimonious bible belt so called Christians, full of values and morals supposedly, have blood on their hands.
If there is a God, and if there is a Judgement Day, they won't be going anywhere good.

I don't care if they see the error of their ways in decades to come. They didn't just vote for someone who put America First. They voted for someone who put dictators around the world first (and an unelected lunatic in the cabinet).
They have acted to the detriment of the safety and wellbeing of millions. They will not be forgiven.

I mean the USA was literally built on the back of murder, enslavement and theft, so I’m not sure they were ever “the good guys”. I guess people are just noticing it more now that social media has enabled every day voices to be heard.

Hasn't the USA has funded dictators and fascism abroad for decades and done terrible things to its minorities including human experimentation? Its as morally grey as anywhere. They've just stopped masking for people who didn't know, or didn't care.

Really you are deluded if you think Americans have been seen as 'good guys' since the end of the 2nd World War. Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan.... countless other invasions without justification -- in fact the first time america was not actively involved in a foreign conflict since the 50s was the last time trump was in office (although I concede he's looking particularly unhinged this time round).
