My colleague here in Australia just referred to the US as "Occupied States of America" and that is legit how it feels right now. Occupied by a hostile foreign power.

I countered with Vichy States but it's less catchy.

It's funny how much the supposedly leftist tankies hate Bernie/AOC/Omar/etc.

He knows what needs to happen, but it's a hard sell to get the population up and moving when most are just trying not to starve these days.
