I bet much of the world looks at it like America is getting its comeuppance for all the meddling they have done over the years.
We've been fed American exceptionalism so hard we can't believe outside forces could have allied with our own politicians to overthrow the government.
I will reiterate, the rich don't have boarders, only vested interests. They can escape to where ever they want when they bring down the democracy propping up all our civil rights.
How niave it is to think the the owners of this country would ever give up their prejudices and allow an ounce of power to escape their grasp.
We would all do ourselves well to learn how other countries who have lost their democracy have dealt. I'm not saying there is any saving grace in those stories but it will be best to prepare yourself for living under true, unveiled, oppression.
