Well that’s very sad to hear. I still think the citizens united decision needs to be reversed and get the influence of money out of elections, that appears to be a big problem in America. Fortunately there are restrictions on the amount of money that can be spent in our elections in Australia.

Agreed. But nearly 90 million eligible voters in America didn’t vote at all in the November elections. Americans have a voting problem. Also, until the Citizens united’ decision of 2010 is overturned, elections will be bought by very wealthy people, as like Elon Musk did last election.

And yet Americans installed this total moron as their president, not once, but twice, and now the whole world has to suffer this fool. So much for American exceptionalism 🤔

Then look to Australia’s example regarding gun control. Also take a look at Australia’s political system, we all vote here in Australia, unlike America, where almost 90 million eligible voters didn’t bother to vote in the November elections. We have good healthcare and education because we vote.

America has lost all credibility now it has elected a total moron as their president, not once, but twice. America is not the greatest nation on earth, far from it. Poor public health, poor public education, low wages and a corrupt judiciary just to name some aspects of American life.

Who on earth would want to live in America. America is a laughing stock. Low wages for working people, if you can get a job, poor health care, poor public education system, corrupt justice system and a broken democracy where many citizens don’t even bother to vote. It’s a joke.

One thing that can be done, is when there are elections, get out and vote. Almost 90 million eligible voters didn’t use their god given right to vote. America has a voting problem. American citizens who don’t vote, couldn’t care less about their supposed democracy. Don’t complain if you don’t vote.

The question you should be asking is why on earth did the American people install a convicted felon and a known abuser of women, as president, not once, but twice. Are Americans just stupid, or he is an incredibly talented conman. 🤔

A moronic, racist and misogynist felon, that Americans couldn’t give a toss about, because they elected him not once, but twice. America has a voting problem, nearly 90 million eligible voters didn’t bother to vote. Not what you’d call a great democracy. American exceptionalism is a fallacy.
December 11, 2025 at 3:29 AM
Only thing is, Americans voted for this moronic piece of excrement, not once, but twice, and now the whole world has to suffer.
America has lost all credibility.

Americans need to respect the privilege of their right to vote. The right to vote was a very hard fought issue that people died for and now spoiled Americans don’t even bother to vote. Nearly 90 million eligible voters didn’t bother to vote in the last election, shame on them. Vote, vote, vote.

Well America, this is what you get when you elect a convicted felon, a known abuser of women and the biggest conman America has ever seen as your president, not once, but twice. Your political system is broken, a large portion of your citizens don’t even bother to vote. Fix it, don’t complain.

If you want to look at what a much better democracy looks like, then take a look at Australia. It’s not perfect, but it is far better than America’s political system. For starters, we all vote. America has a voting problem, almost 90 million eligible voters didn’t vote in your last election 🤔
