USA is like an alcoholic dad or a toxic relationship.
1/3 of the people around here are exactly like you said:
"You should be grateful to him for protecting your life and liberty. It's good that he's so strong, because if our family wasn't in charge it would be the Changs around the corner or the Smirnovs down the road. We should always support everything he does and never question him, and never, ever wish for things to be different. This is the only way that things can ever be. Anyone who tells you otherwise is crazy and evil."
The most scary thing is that I live in Argentina.... Explain me that! Cultural war made worked pretty well around here.
And even now with Macri, personal puppet of Trump, is president, he hits us with measures that doesn't help our economy.
