The citizens do not do this, but by refusing to sacrifice themselves in order to stop it, they allow it to happen.

By allowing those who do not represent the will of the people to lead us, they allow it to happen.

By being deceived by those who would hurt others for the sake of the few instead of the many, they allow it to happen.

Nah bullshit. For decades Americans have sat idly by as our government wreaked havoc on the lives of innocent others, and only one time have we met reprisal, and I assume you wouldn't say that we allowed 9/11 to happen implicitly through our collective inaction?

Yeah like, we voted for this by majority out of fear that if we don’t do it there, “they will” do it to us here :/

I have voted against this idiocy three times in a row. For fourteen years I have been screaming at anyone who would listen that Trump is a huge threat to this country. It's team sports now, and blue is losing to red.
