Does anyone have any advice on getting out of America?? This place is pretty much a joke. Also, I am mostly broke. I could sell my car I guess, for some money.

If you’re broke, then the chances of getting out are slim to zero. You could put a plan together to get out in 5-10 years and until that point, you sacrifice everything to get enough money built up and certifiably learn one or two languages.
What I would recommend is if you’re not educated, save money, enroll in a community college, get good grades, maybe try to take some honors/higher level courses that are recognized by 4-year universities, get your AS degree. An AS with advanced/honors courses will put you way forward in going to Europe. It still will not make you completely employable, but you will be way forward. It could be possible, depending on how ambitious you are, to get a 2+ year degree with the AS and meaning that you take extra courses that aren’t requirements for your degree, but higher level, then you have like 2.5-3 years worth of courses and an AS that can’t be taken away, then you enroll in the cheapest 4 year that will take all of your credits and then you have only 2-3 semesters and you may get a scholarship because you were a good student at a community college. Get a BS, then you’re employable at home or elsewhere or at a company that will hire you in the US and place you elsewhere. You can also use the CC time to learn 1-2 other languages, effectively saving money on lessons or the certification tests which are very expensive.
Outside of that, you’ll be competing with every other American doing the same exact thing and running away from something. I agree, the US is a fucking joke now with the costs of living, fleecing of the consumers being hidden under the inflation, safety issues, and people getting progressively stupider because they’re getting their news from tiktok. I don’t agree about the idea that the US is the place to make it because it hasn’t been that way in forever. I think making it in Europe might be easier, depending on what you have, but unless you’re an EU/EEA citizen to start, things are stacked against you.
