@NightOwl@lemmy.ca the "majority" actually voted for someone else or chose not to vote. Only ~30% support this circus.

Majority of people who voted. That is not the same as the majority of eligible voters nor is it anywhere near same as the majority of Americans.
Also, if it were a Dem Pres, we'd have more or less the same outcome just less crass and with more political theater/obfuscation.
What do you think life will be like for the rest of the world if USA, China and maybe Russia are all allies?
