No actually I'm not. And it won't matter anyway, that half of the nation has long since been culturally frittered away as racist, homophobic, anti-woman, whatever. They've already demonized and marginalized their opposition in the court of public opinion. There's nothing to keep their supporters from winnowing them out politically and socially. Especially when you have a mass media that treats the man like its own personal messiah.

First of all the US system is built with checks and balances to keep any one branch of government or one single person from accumulating too much power. Those term limits were put there for a reason, by mutual agreement of Republicans and Democrats after the Democrat FDR served 4 consecutive terms in office.
Also, we don't care what the rest of the world thinks. You think we do because the few Democrat comedians you watch on TV make it look that way, but honestly, we don't.
And also, after having living abroad for almost 5 years now, it's pretty crazy how much the foreign press gets wrong. A few weeks ago I saw a TV show here in Chile that was saying that Abraham Lincoln was a Democrat. So if they're getting so much wrong, it doesn't surprise me that "the rest of the world" has such a skewed view of the USA if they can't even get their facts straight.
