What can you tell me to make it feel better?

And I agree, it's none of our affair now.

I dont agree.

It's everyones affair. In the case of smaller countries a local and contained affair, in the case of the USA a global affair. Everyone will be afflicted and the winners will be the minority. In fact, saying it's none oof our affair now is one of the sentiments I resent the most. It's on the lines of sitting on one's backside while others are carrying the load. If one is so privileged to sit something like that out. Which I doubt very much, unless the one making that statement is filthy rich and pretty much their own island.

I have to say, the quote in your OP only fills me with resentment of the one making it. It's one of the stupidest comments I had the misfortune to read and probably the major reason why figures like that assclown can rise to power.
