Who's the 340 million?

I'm guessing the US population. Of which millions support and admire billionaires. Look at their current political situation, they even voted for it.

Because every country is a monolith.

Doesn't seem like much (or enough) is happening, so basically, yeah.

Unfortunately, as a population, they either voted for it, or didn't vote against it

And regrettably, the politics and bullshit of the US affects other countries. Usually for the worse.

Sure, there are so many great people in the US, but there's a whole lot of cunts and apathetic people too

That's not true, he won by 1%, barely 1.5 million votes. That's a razor thin margin in an election. This mandate shit he keeps talking about is bullshit.

The US does not use a popular vote system, he got 312 v 226 electoral college votes, which is a huge win (in that system), and also took the senate.

Yeah, and he won each of the states that got him an electoral victory by extremely thin margins.
