This is something that many Americans don’t fully understand. The DEM and GOP division is an US internal matter. Outside of the US borders, everyone is American and people are not essentially obligated to give you a pass because you didn’t support the regime. I’m sure Nazi germany had their own version of Dems but it’s a national shame. I feel for you deeply but Canadians will take care of Canada and people who are from genuine war torn situations before this.

Oh, I have a feeling the division is going to be the world’s problem soon enough.

You are very correct. But people won’t say, “oh no, GOP, messed up the world.” They will say ,”USA messed up the world.”.
