Before Donald Trump entered our nation’s political scene, this level of ignorance of American/world history (shown at left) would have disqualified a candidate from the White House just as assuredly as his own personal death. Before this time, to be the butt of jokes from junior high-schoolers would not have played well, even in the MAGA parts of the nation.
Now, of course, huge portions of voters don’t know that the events of 1775, 1812 and the 20th Century didn’t happen all at once.
Let’s accept that all our votes count the same. When it comes to our elections, intelligent and knowledgeable people have no advantage over the illiterate.
This country may get through this stupidity. Or, more probably, it will not.
Do you think this will change American lives for the better? If so, how?
Rewriting the U.S. Constitution will take some work, as I’m sure you’re aware.
What does the most affluent state in America need in its next governor? I’m pretty sure it not a Trump supporter.
Yes, we have traffic, which we hate. But that’s because everybody and his dog wants to be here for our economic opportunities and our natural beauty.
In general, we reject racism, ignorance, corruption, and environmental destruction.
I can’t swear that the content of the meme here is accurate; in fact, most affluent Scandinavians I run across admit that they pay higher taxes than Americans.
They claim that the attraction is that they aren’t forced to live among uneducated slobs where people are dying of treatable diseases with masses of impoverished people living on the streets.
Isn’t there something to be said for that?
