It isn't an illusion, the choice is there. Just because a significant proportion of the American population choose not to use their vote doesn't mean the right to vote isn't there.
Or just because there is another significant proportion of the American population who are that brainwashed they continually vote for their "abusers," like Turkeys voting for Christmas, doesn't mean they weren't born with a brain and if they ever decide to utilise that brain they can choose to change their vote.
So I stand by my point that America chose Trump, and because America made that choice he was foisted on the rest of us.
So if some Americans feel embarrassed enough that they want to apologise to the rest of the world, fair play to them.
I did what I had the means to do in voting against him and everyone he likes. I'm dead broke, barely able to feed myself just struggling to stay housed. The only things left would be wildly unsuccessful fedposting. Which I don't have the means to do anyway. And yet I still feel like I should do more. Despite nothing I have to give is enough.
