I’m sorry but that’s nonsense. Which papers are you reading? I’m a Londoner and we all accept there are risks to living in a big city (air pollution, crime, poverty, traffic accidents etc).

The outside world doesn’t see Americans as this split thing of people who voted for Trump and those who didn’t. They see us as one nation who elected this asshole (and there is no better term for…
