Observing American politics feels really strange at the moment (lemm.ee)

As an outsider (I live in Belgium) it feels very weird and dystopian to see everything happening in American politics with Trump and Musk.

On one side, it's very interesting and almost entertaining; on the other side, it's scary. I can't imagine what it must be like to live in the USA.

Americans, how do you cope? What's your take on the situation?

I can't leave. They just made my gender illegal to put on a passport.

    So TECHNICALLY they can't do you harm either... No passport no way of punishing you (I know they can, but I'm just trying to lighten the mood a little bit. Humor as coping mechanism and all that)
