In recent weeks I have been chatting to a few Americans on a message board.
They certainly are very split at the moment on politics especially Trump and it is not very hard to wind them up, even families are falling out over their views on him. Not sure exactly what their civil war achieved and they are calling for another one!

Very interesting and scary documentary called farenheit 11/9
Most interesting part which when I watched it a while ago was a little OTT was how Trump will do his best to shut down the media...... What has he threatened with Twitter?

Americans appear nice and caring but scratch the surface and their attitudes and basic beliefs are terrible. Try and have a discussion about religion,health care,racial discrimination,policing or trades unions with yer average yank and it's like going back 100 years.I’ve been to the states probably 5 times as an adult - over 5 months in total, big cities and the Bible Belt. This is very true. The best yanks are the ones who stitch a Canadian flag on their rucksack. |
