    America does not care about truth. Worse, it actively discourages truth.

    Lying is accepted. Making up facts that suit your narrative and shouting down anyone who disagrees gets you rewarded with the highest position of state.

    We, the rest of the world, are just watching you guys in horror.

            I’m saying if at least half the population was horrified they’d have voted. The people that didn’t vote are apathetic. You can’t subtract people who voted for him from total and group them as against him

              You can when there have been several news stories about groups who abstained or chose to vote 3rd party deeply regretting their choice.

            Voters who (to add to your point), don’t represent half the country, because 90 million out of 240 million voters didn’t vote at all. I think the number of non-voters went up a bit but not too far away from the average pres. election

      America does not care about truth

      Show me a country with social media and I’ll show you people who value making their political opponents ‘look like fools’ by lying.
