  1. AUSTRALIAN here - Do you Americans think that everyone of America's allies isn't going to take this seriously? I was actually in Canada for work when Trump just tore up NAFTA and slapped them with tariffs. Trump proved in that moment he doesn't care about being President unless he can treat America's allies the same way he's treated people his whole life - LIKE SHlT. I can tell all of you straight up that NONE of US has a problem with the vast majority of the American People. I actually went to college in America on a sports scholarship. I love America, its people and its culture. I'm not too happy toady because I'm a Niners fan, but I tell people all the time and explain why I think the US Constitution is one of humanities finest achievements. BUT America has let its politics become this toxic cesspool of insanity. The Bill of Rights is brilliant except for one thing - it DOES NOT put any onus on the American people respecting the freedoms and protections listed. There's no claim or urging of being respectful of those rights. As such it allows people like Trump to trample all over those rights. When Merrick Garland was appointed it was seen around the world that he would bring some common sense back into the DOJ and that he would deal with Trump and those around him. Instead we have seen a repeat of what's happened in the past. Just like after the disgrace of the Abu Ghraib and Bagram AFB prisoner abuses the foot soldiers were help accountable BUT NONE of the LEADERSHIP that caused it. Just like after the 2008 GFC when over 3,000 banking personnel were prosecuted BUT NONE of the CEO's and CFO's who caused it. For a change America needs to hold its leaders accountable and deal with them. FYI - YES we also need to start holding our political leaders accountable and deal with them when they do the wrong thing. This seems to be the real plague of the 21st Century - NOT holding those in power accountable. Oh Yeah - to the Packers and Cowboys fans. Yeah I now know how you feel about the Niners.
