Early last week, I was at the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library for its first weekend. At the library itself, despite President Donald Trump inserting himself incongruously into the opening ceremonies, I did not see a single person sporting a Trump-branded clothing item.

The town of Medora, North Dakota, itself was, however, a different story. It wasn’t overwhelming. But for someone who lives in an urban center of a blue state, where even in the ruby red rural areas most people have become sufficiently shamed to shut up about their MAGA tendencies, a single errant MAGA cap is a rarity.

You’re gonna have to.

Not only is it not our responsibility, we can’t help. Believe me, us sanctioning the US will only turn your government against us. All we can do is what we are…ride it out, be as friendly as we can (the reason Australia goes above and beyond is because of who we are and a little debt from WW2 but the citizenry’s patience is being tested) and try not to poke the bear too much.

But it’s your job and your responsibility, not ours. We were told to mind our own business for years when we warned US citizens this was coming during the Obama tenure, when Ryan and Gingrich started their obstructionist crap.

The sooner you all get together on a peaceful shutdown the better off you’ll be.

    I hate to break it to you but American fascism will probably turn against you regardless, and cannot be appeased. You won't be saved by refusing to side with American citizens. Appeasement will not win you safety.

    What?

    Yeah, we know, unless their citizens stop it.

    Mam, your argument is dogshit. Just let it be. Take the L.

    Oh, that's why you've been so disrespectful and refuse to follow up on what I'm saying to you. You think I'm a woman.
