>any other president before trump would have resigned in disgrace about 100 times
Reagan supported death squads in Latin America and didn't resign. G.W. Bush started a war based on bullshit and had people tortured and didn't resign. Every president going back years now has overseen the NSA surveillance system.
My history isn’t amazing, but let’s say they did those things. Why should USA presidents care what non-Americans (myself included!) think? I can’t vote them out, nor the Senators supporting them. (Would I even be able to sue them if they injured me with their policies?)
What matters is limited to their actions with regard to America and Americans. For the actions which led to the impeachment, for their actions during the pandemic, and for the post-Election behaviour, a normal politician would demonstrate shame. And those are just the biggest and most obvious ones.
One thing that bewildered me about reddit talking about Trump is that the amount of Non-americans that would chime in about our politics. Like why the hell do you care about my country so much? Are we a zoo to you? We equally dislike our system as much as you but we're at ground zero and understand the harsh reality of our system better than them. Why do they think our countries influence is something they should try to sway?
Because when you fabricate a war we send our young men and women there to die a pointless death as your allies. Because if you descide to use nuclear weapons its over for us, and if you descide to ignore global warming its equally over for us.
