    Can’t trust Americans or can’t trust the United States because those are two inherently different groups.

    Did I miss the violent military coup?

    I mean, there was that one guy that riled up his supporters to attack the capital. But then 70% of “Americans” participated in his democratic election as President just a few months ago.

    Are you suggesting we trust those guys?

      There may have been thousands of guns there on Jan 6th but they only found like three in the hands of civilians. You’ll know if Americans get riled up enough to attack the capital.

      And no, 70% of the population didn’t vote for him, he got just under 50% of the votes, but that was only about 23% of Americans.
