We are such a split country. (Of course the X comments could be bots).

But I noticed this too... Metsola didn't say trumps name she said "the United States administration" (this guy's canadian).

What do you all think?

To be clear, she doesnâ€™t rebuke Trump, she specifies the United Statesâ€™ administration. Thatâ€™s the lot of you.

I get that most Americans on here are unlikely to have voted for Trump, but you need to internalize this: Trump isnâ€™t making these threats. *America* is making these threats.
