I’m from Korea, and we impeached our president last year, mostly because he declared martial law, but he was also a terrible president, and no one really liked him being there, even his own party.

Why can’t the U.S do the same, if Donald Trump is so bad? Why are some Americans even supporting him?

    Liberalism is not left-wing. Further, there was no “silent majority,” the MAGA crowd is both the loudest and is a minority. The largest bloc was the non-voter bloc, the DNC and GOP are increasingly unpopular because neither are servants of the people, but instead a tiny number of megacorporations and the billionaires that sit at the top of society.

    He’s doing a terrible job, he’s trying to keep US imperialism going but it’s already crumbling because the global south is kicking the empire out and turning to mutually beneficial relationships, such as with China, and the megacorporations already hollowed out US manufacturing in favor of overseas plunder. The US Empire is a house of cards, and no amount of anyone’s flailing can save it from its own collapse.
