Like it or not, the distinction is meaningless to people outside of the US

Don’t confuse United States with Trump. Trump would risk it

Trump wanted to literally bomb protestors last term. There is some report on a call where he wanted to do it. Just drop a missile on them.

People have been calling U.S Americans dumb cunts for decades, Trump is the embodiment of the U.S.A as viewed by outsiders.

No one hates the USA more than US Americans, but we also unite against foreign hostility, it’s like an exclusive club for self haters. So I’m sure the world views us in much the same way. Just from looking around and seeing the Trump flags coming down, it appears a significant portion of his past supporters are realizing that they made a mistake or are at least a little hesitant to proudly display their support.
I would say Trump has a hammer and every problem is a nail, but he’s not sure what a nail is or how to use a hammer so he just goes around hitting things with the wrong side of the hammer. So now everyone else thinks they all of the USA doesn’t know how to use hammers.

I promise you, the people who you bomb, murder, and torture by the millions hate you more.

Pretty sure those countries that got bombed are full of people who hate the US a lot more than Americans
