This. This is impacting everyone globally.

Sure, we're all sick of US politics, but the world order is being upended and democratic institutions are being thrashed. What's happening in America is spreading like a cancer across the world.

It sucks, but this is the shit sandwich we're all dealing with right now. And Americans are the ones feeding it to everyone.

Presidents in the past recognized the impacts of their words and actions, that cause global ripple effects. Seems lost knowledge to those in charge now.
