I’m from Korea, and we impeached our president last year, mostly because he declared martial law, but he was also a terrible president, and no one really liked him being there, even his own party.

Why can’t the U.S do the same, if Donald Trump is so bad? Why are some Americans even supporting him?

    We totally could and would, but the thing is Trump isnt that bad, he does a lot of good things even. The left, more socialist side is so vocal and active they drown out everything else, but they are a minority. The democratic party hasnt been this unpopular in decades, and thats an easy fact to verify. The silent majority voted for Trump and believe he is doing a fine job. Most of those folks see that Trump is a fine president and thats how American history will remember him. Most patriotic folks do like president Trump because he does put America first… and everyone around here wants to talk shit to me now and tell me im “maga” but im just going to ignore their BS.

      Liberalism is not left-wing. Further, there was no “silent majority,” the MAGA crowd is both the loudest and is a minority. The largest bloc was the non-voter bloc, the DNC and GOP are increasingly unpopular because neither are servants of the people, but instead a tiny number of megacorporations and the billionaires that sit at the top of society.

      He’s doing a terrible job, he’s trying to keep US imperialism going but it’s already crumbling because the global south is kicking the empire out and turning to mutually beneficial relationships, such as with China, and the megacorporations already hollowed out US manufacturing in favor of overseas plunder. The US Empire is a house of cards, and no amount of anyone’s flailing can save it from its own collapse.

        God bless you taking the time to entertain the incoherence of this comment. I fear it is fruitless here but I commend the effort.

      Trump doesn’t give a shit about you or America. It’s just a slogan to dupe people as he persues his own personal interests. He’s corrupt, and the rest of the politicians don’t want to get rid of him because they’re just as corrupt and serving the same corporate interests. It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

      He might hurt the people you dislike because it doesn’t cost him anything but he’s not going to actually improve your life or anybody else’s.
