History is a harsh judge.

People like Trump are nothing on their own, they need a large cadre of others to do their bidding for them. Note that Trump was nominated by the republican party because they figured he might help them win the election no matter what the cost to the country (maybe they told themselves and are still telling themselves that it is worth it and that he can be controlled). By voting for a person like Trump you are essentially abdicating from your position of power and handing it to them but the responsibility still rests with you.

So for every action Trump takes that hurts people you are partially responsible. And if you think that somehow what Trump is doing will benefit that United States then I really would like to know what drives that line of thinking.

So are keyboard warriors on Hacker News. Did you vote for Obama? Are you partially responsible for his drone strikes?

Pro Tip: The internet is not 100% American. Maybe check your dumb and obvious bias at the door before leveling accusations.
