Please come forth and tell me! I don't just want to hear from Democrats, but Republicans too.

What are you all thinking about the way things are going in the US itself?

What are you thinking about the external affairs policies being pursued?

It is so hard to comprehend it all from over here - certainly for me. I just wonder what thoughts are from Americans themselves. Ideally, I'd like to hear all perspectives and it not turn into a mudslinging fest, but I appreciate this is AIBU!

Bumping this in the hope that there might be some US based MNers waking up soon!

Why don’t you just read the identical thread from yesterday? The American MNers on here must be absolutely sick of being expected to answer for their country’s despot.

I’m heartbroken and angry, and frankly don’t want to hear from republicans. There was a thread yesterday that was taken over by a couple of trump voters trying to act like they are reasonable people. Nope. A facist sits in the White House.

Could you post me a link, I hadn't seen that thread. I'm not expecting anyone to answer on behalf of someone else. I'm interested to know what people think, but it sounds like it has already been covered. Please do send me the link. Thank you.

Everyone I've spoken to here in the UK is appalled and horrified by what's happening in the US.

I really feel for you, it must be very frightening.
