The US was founded as a oligarchy, only white rich males had any say. They started with genocide and land theft, grew through slavery and imperialism, and tRump has just dropped the mask they have been hiding behind for 250 years. Good to see people waking up to what that country really is, I hope they don't go back to sleep when he is gone.
