    Maybe because he’s not “American” and comes from a country with regulations like the rest of the world, and people care when they vote to make things work.

    And like most of the rest of the world, there are more than two political parties, and is not a drama show.

      He has American citizenship and lives in America, he’s talking about America here. And I promise you that other countries, yes even those in the magical fantasy land of Europe, also have lots of political drama despite having more than two parties in the government (They tend to form alliances based on left/right and split into two blocks anyway).

        I know, im from Europe.
        The drama is not compared to USA, we don’t vote on celebrities.

        In my country we even have a party for the animals and climate, so when USA still trying to vote for basic rights, we already ahead and vote for animal rights and more climate change.

          Yeah no, this “America Bad and backwards 3rd world country while us Europeans are so enlightened” circlejerk isn’t constructive either. The American political system is terrible but a lot of European countries, mine included, are copying their “celebrity drama show” attitude towards politics because of extreme American cultural influence. We shouldn’t deny our own problems.
