The Trump regime has done subtle but irrevocable damage to the cultural influence of the USA.

Used to watch various TV shows set in the US, and take them at face value, a familiar if slightly exotic presentation of normality.

Now it's mostly "yikes, feel bad for you" and a loss of overall interest. Because we've seen, US normal is *deeply fucked up* even when it's mostly harmless at the surface, and that can't be unseen.
