As an outsider (I live in Belgium) it feels very weird and dystopian to see everything happening in American politics with Trump and Musk.

On one side, it’s very interesting and almost entertaining; on the other side, it’s scary. I can’t imagine what it must be like to live in the USA.

Americans, how do you cope? What’s your take on the situation?

    My view from across the pond is that is bad enough that 30%ish of the country voted for this

    That does sound like a fucked up number if you take it at face value. But I have found if you look at historical voting, about 35% are always going to be bat shit crazy on how they vote. Is it not like that where you’re from?
