      Tbh America has quite a high influence in our world so we should care at least a little bit

        Totally agree with @toastymedic. People in my country listen to news about American politics and get really worked up about it.

        And I’m left wondering why they stress so much about it cos they can’t change a thing to the matter. They cannot vote!

        Hardly. That’s like me telling you that you should care about the politics of Britain or Australia.

        Sure it might be mildly interesting to spectate, but its not like you should care much.

          Only that the USA is an important global player while Australia and Britain, well… they are small fry. I prefer to have a US president who does not call climate change a hoax. Seriously, I can’t understand how someone in their right mind wouldn’t care.

            I care, because the influence of American politics in other nations politics is undeniable. The shockwaves, caused by Trump’s antics, are perceived around the world. Some countries even had/have Trump likened figures in power. I feel like Maga straight up emboldened right wing parties around the world, to get out of the closet and be more verbatim about their cause.

            My main worry is, that it’s something that’s being embraced by a steadily increasing, already big, number of the population, in many countries around the world.

            We have a scary political trend here in Germany right now.
