    You can be a US citizen and hate Trump, but that makes you a self-hating US citizen. Why do you hate America?

    If I think really hard, I can come up with bad things Trump has done. He signed the law to ban bumpstocks. He appointed Sessions. He seems to have decided to let Hillary get away with her crimes, along with the rest of the Obama administration.

    Well, that's all I could come up with.

    I guess I could demand more. I wish Trump were more Trumpy. We should ban more people from coming to the USA. We should build more walls, with mile-wide minefields between them. We need a wall to stop jihadi snow Mexicans. We should actively hunt down all illegals and harshly enforce the laws against aiding them. We need to enforce English language everywhere. We should be competitive with China regarding workplace and environmental laws. We should cut our cost of living to be more like India or China, ditching regulations that drive up costs.

    You know, if you don't share that vision, you can move to Sweden or Germany. If you really want to be all multicultural and diverse, LOL, nothing is stopping you from moving to Africa even. Do it. You'll be so happy, and you can savor the thought of how I'll miss you so much.
