... Trump was elected due to GOP gerry-mandering ... FWIW, where district lines are drawn don't impact presidential elections.

Nope district lines don't affect federal elections...but voter suppression does...like folks off the registration rolls, closing polling places, making it as close to impossible as possible to get a state ID, cutting back on days/hours of early voting....things like that affect the federal elections.

No doubt Trump is a narcissistic baby. I am pointing out the US is still nothing to laugh at. I encourage you to speak to people who migrated to the US about US. They have nothing but great things to say about this land of opportunity. That has been my experience lately. We can all agree Trump’s behavior is childish and crude. Just not understanding the constant bashing of what the US isn’t doing right. Also what is up with all the Canadians posting all day about US politics? It’s interesting I guess but it seems borderline obsessive. Hardly, but you can believe that if you want. Now as far as laughing at the US? According to our various relatives scattered across Europe it’s not the US that is being laughed at but our feckless leader. So much this.
