(9,525 posts)are mightily chagrined by what is happening here, and has said in prior posts that we should not to be ashamed, because they know and understand. That is very comforting.
I thought of that when Americans were told to keep a low profile during the protests in UK, that I really hope they know how hard it is for so many Americans to watch what is happening and wish we could do much more.

Trumpanzees are those who should be embarrassed they voted for him, and still supporting him despite his incompetence, lies and most likely collusion with Russia !
I know they read DU. It is more for them than DU members.
While I'm at it, if you read me : no, the golden calf you praise so much, doesn't rule the world ! He's an enormous laughingstock, disdained, mocked and discredited wherever he goes !
So, take off you head from your ass and face the raw truth !
Keep faith Amaryllis, looks like Mueller is moving faster.

(17,984 posts)Can you hop across the channel, grab that baby Rump blimp, and ship it over here? I would love to see it flying exactly where your meme depicts it (or maybe it should just be impaled on her torch?).

I'm really proud of my European fellow citizens and our leaders.
We are at your side and we show it.

(81,466 posts)Remember when bush/cheney won (in my opinion, actually stole) the 2004 election? Somebody started a Sorry, world page in the internet, where Americans could post photos of themselves holding signs of apology and we tried to stop it? It wound up being MASSIVE!
I feel like I want another one. The 2018 version.

(22,899 posts)It was gratifying to be able to communicate our horror over that stolen election that unleashed W on the world
And they were so forgiving and generous-- I was amazed and deeply thankful
Who could ever have imagined THIS?????

(5,101 posts)No, we know what's happening.
And plus, we are now numerous to share almost live, the latest from US.
Every day, I send to all my address book, a summary of the day's events, pics, relevant critics and my opinion.
I started to do this in early June.

(11,949 posts)Not embarrassed at all. Treat people with respect, dont act like an idiot, learn a little language and its all good.
If politics comes up, which it almost never does, I just tell them a majority voted for Hillary.
Never had a problem.
