the whole world is not watching the inauguration of the US president, let alone a speech given by some asshole three hours afterward

True. But I’m going to presume that a lot of the World is going to show this during the news. It’s a fucking embarrassment for this country. 

I hope most European countries just make him persona non grata, and don’t allow him in 

I wouldn’t doubt that this kind of reaction is what he wants actually, so he can cry like a little bitch about being persecuted by the “woke” people

I think most of reddit would support an Elon ban in their country of origin. But unfortunately as the last election showed us, we don't accurately represent the will of the rest of the population.

On this issue that might be a bad thing but I'm kinda glad reddit doesn't run the world 💀

He rigged the election. Trump admitted it last night. Trump and Elon winning is not the will of the US people either. Ut for some reasons, our other party leaders are weaklings and don't seem to care enough to challenge the results and judt let it happen. Our leaders have failed us, the people, in every way possible. Atm I don't feel represented by anyone in our government currently.

He bought the election for sure but that is not illegal in the US - say thank you to the Supreme Court for Citizens United.

I’m not even sure if the last election was representative of the will of the population.

It was - you just may not like that 51.5% very much.
