It’s also wild how much of Taiwan don’t see the problem with trump either. Once upon a time he noted they are their own country now they feel he can do no wrong. I’ve even had to tell a relative from there he’s a kiddy diddler and they still went on about how they are finding some benefits here.
These people are like when a beaten girlfriend goes from a physical abuser and jump right into a manipulative emotional abuser relationship and say “at least he doesn’t hit me”
once your standards are that low in a country your life isn’t as great as you think it is. “At least I’m alive”…mmm ok so that’s your standard. Like maybe you want to live past your next meal before celebrating.

We haven’t been dealing with Trump for as long as Venezuela has been dealing with Maduro (and Chavez before him). Give us a couple more decades and I’m sure you’d see more people happy to see him “arrested” by a foreign power. Fwiw, I’d be happy to see it tomorrow, but I know a lot of my fellow USians wouldn’t take so kindly. Not because they actually like Trump, but because it’d be a sobering reminder that we’re no longer top of the food chain
