The Cold War? Child’s play compared to what lies ahead, according to U.S. historian Robert Kagan. Trump, he says, is leading the world into the most dangerous era since 1945.

I totally don’t understand the “no resistance” part. Is then this country filled with total idiots? Or are they all that greedy, they think they are going to get something from that orange satan if they support him? Both possibilities are despiccable.
USA has 300 years as a country. It has seen civil war and protests in the last century.
It has little to no history of turmoil to shape their citizens political identity.
This is the time USA has actual weapons pointed at them. Not like protestors from certain groups facing cops. Nation as a whole. Just some of them ain’t realized that.
May I suggest a really good book? Howard Zinn - A People’s History of the United States
Which civil war did USA have in the last century?
That’s the culture in the US, money has always been able to influence and coordinate over ideology. It has become clear that patriotism in the US is so obsessed with the romanticized past to make up any actual ideological conviction in the present. Otherwise, we would see a lot of states begin trying to coordinate with each other against a clearly unconstitutional federal government.
From an outside perspective, I have a feeling that there is a lot of resistance. It’s just that politicians mostly aren’t doing shit. Same thing for most media. And I think that yes, they are all mostly greedy.
