Past administrations have all had hands toward what we have today.

Absolutely, I also wrote in another response that Obama was just unlucky that it was under him that these things were revealed.
And also the sad fact that my own country was complicit and helping USA spy on European countries.

It’s disheartening to feel so powerless in the face of such a FUBAR-POTUS clown show in the chainsaw wielding circus.

I am really sorry for all the good Americans that have to suffer the consequences of this administration.
It will probably get worse before it gets better.
