For my British and European friends who are "shocked" and "surprised", here are 10 reasons you didn't see this coming.
Read this short post and then read the replies from our American friends who will confirm what I'm saying.
1. Americans love their country and want it to be the best in the world. America is a nation of people who conquered a continent. They love strength. They love winning. Any leader who appeals to that has an automatic advantage.
2. Unlike Europeans, Americans have not accepted managed decline. They don't have Net Zero here, they believe in producing their own energy and making it as cheap as possible because they know that their prosperity depends on it.
3. Prices for most basic goods in the US have increased rapidly and are sky high. What the official statistics say about inflation and the reality of people's lives are not the same.
4. Unlike you, Americans do not believe in socialism. They believe in meritocracy. They don't care about the super rich being super rich because they know that they live in a country where being super rich is available to anyone with the talent and drive to make it. They don't resent success, they celebrate it.
5. Americans are the most pro-immigration people in the world. Read that again. Seriously, read it again. Americans love an immigrant success story. They want more talented immigrants to come to America. But they refuse to accept people coming illegally. They believe in having a border.
6. Americans are sensitive about racial issues and their country's imperfect history. They believe that those who are disadvantaged by the circumstances of their birth should be given the opportunity to succeed. What they reject, however, is the idea that in order to address the errors of the past new errors must be made. DEI is racist. They know it and they reject it precisely because they are not racist.
7. Americans are the most philosemitic nation on earth. October 7 and the pro-Hamas left's reaction shocked them to their very core because, among other things, they remember what 9/11 was like and they know jihad when they see it.
8. Americans are extremely practical people. They care about what works, not what sounds good. In Europe, we produce great writers and intellectuals. In America they produce (and attract) great engineers, businessmen and investors. Because of this, they care less about Trump's rhetoric than you do and more about his policies than you do.
9. Americans are deeply optimistic people. They hate negativity. The woke view of American history as a series of evils for which they must eternally apologise is utterly abhorrent to them. They believe in moving forward together, not endlessly obsessing about the past.
10. America is a country whose founding story is one of resistance to government overreach. They loathe unnecessary restrictions, regulations and control. They understand that freedom comes with the price of self-reliance and they pay it gladly.

Did LinkedIn just remove all my connections? 😱 Super scary when you're in the middle of a job search—glad I'm not actually alone! 🙌

Have you ever wished to view the world from a completely new perspective? This thread on cool maps is here to blow your mind

@vfsglobalcare Sure. I already have customer service team’s contact details. As I gave a detailed overview of my ongoing issue with the team and the unsolved problem despite 11 cases, I wud appreciate your intervenention or an escalation matrix. Looking forward to actual support and a solution
The CS team confirms via ticket and on call that my payment receipt is active and this shouldnt be a problem. However, there is no actual technical resolution to this problem on the portal!
@vfsglobalcare Sure, thanks. I’ve shared the passport and case details via DM. Let me know in case more info is needed. Looking forward to the resolution and hearing back from you.
8/8: Everytime before I raise the ticket, I web call, wait for minimum 45 min for it to be picked up and discuss my problem. The outcome of the call is to raise the ticket or close and start new application. Pls intervene!! @USAndIndia@vfsglobalcare@USAmbIndia@DrSJaishankar
Pls note that this problem was created in Dec 2023 when the CS team separated dependents profiles from the primary applicant. It was the only solution for my problem back then. I have raised 6 tickets between Oct and Nov 2023 to solve that problem.
with the solution to clear the cache and close and restart the application. This is not solving the actual problem and I am forced to write on social media. The error I am facing is “the given key was not present in the dictionary”
I’ll be able to dm passport and CS ticket details for you to look into this problem. Currently, the issue is re: linking payment receipt to my father’s profile since past 1 month. I have raised 5 tickets in Jan 2024 itself to solve this problem. The ticket is solved very next day
