—“How can you Americans live with this scum as US president?”—

Because we know he is trying to restore responsibility and particularly civic and national responsibility.
And why?
Because europeans don’t carry their weight on one hand and signal virtue for not doing so.
The USA can’t carry the international order in the face of the three remaining states with imperial instead of federal ambitions.
So either put up and restore your national responsibilities both as countries and as a federation or you will suffer the consequences of your repeated failures to carry your own weight.
We can’t do it any longer.
Our debt will get as out of control as France’s.
Our population will collapse as badly as Germany’s.
Our economy will collapse as badly as the UK’s.
Our civil strife due to immigration will collapse as badly as the Nordics and France.
We will all be as difficult to govern as Italy.
We will all be as poor as the southeastern europeans.
And we will all be victims of resurgent empires.

Just because you don’t like someone doesn’t mean he’s not right. He is. Sorry. It’s not opinion its economic and strategic necessity.
