Yes. But even more accurate in this case would've been the original meme format, where the US would be rage screaming "STOP MOVING ON WITHOUT ME!!! ๐Ÿคฌ"

They've already even complained about the mere possibility of Canada switching trade focus to Europe, calling it an unfair team up against the poor little victim US which "would have consequences".

If there was an honest to God legal way they'd already have figured it out along with everything else in Project 2025, long before coming into office.

They're trying to find out a better loophole than the last one, which blew up in their face. And trying to find ways to remove the people in the way of said loopholes.

Europe accepts its sons and daughters of long ago. Specially the talented ones who contributed to empowering science in the US.

Not the Drumpf family, tho. Those can stay there instead of returning to their roots in Germany. The last thing we want is a "Make Germany Great Again" movement - they're already great right now, no need to fix what's not broken, thank you.

Remember. He didn't back down (for now) because you were hurting as a person.

He backed down because his constituents - the ultra-rich, aka the ones best equipped of all to weather this storm they themselves asked for - complained that their power and wealth rate was decelerating.

Simple as. The people who build and maintain societal infrastructure with their sweat and blood would sooner be left to die than these elitists would see their unfathomable and unneeded amounts of influence drop even 1%.

I mean... Regardless of them being biased or not, or how good a President they were during their terms, didn't every single one of them warn the people this was to be expected when you put a clown on the White House? That it'd turn into a circus?

Even Kamala warned about it, and I don't even like her and don't see her as POTUS material. But even if she didn't do much as a leader, even if her term was mostly unremarkable, it still wouldn't be as implosive as Trump 2.0.

Words, at the end of the day, are just words. They're pretty worthless if there's no action behind them. And Trump calls that bluff daily. He fully knows people will complain and badmouth him, but won't go further than that. If you wanna call the bluffer's bluff, act, don't just threaten. And even if the worst the people can do to him is remove him from office (aka, no lenghty prison time, or remove all his assets and his friend's, or worse) then he's already won and paved the way for the next one in line to try his shot.

And to be clear - I did not vote for this. Like, at all, because I'm not even american. And yet billions of people are still being affected by this debacle of misplaced trust by our collective predecessors.

As far as a spec of dust such as myself can do, I won't contribute to this dependency ever.

I get to be the favorite of pretty much all the family pets. Always been.

Some family and friends joke that I probably could go to an African safari and the lions wouldn't harm me. Not really rushing to find out if it's true tho.
