If America believes that their President is the de’facto leader of the free world, well then as a member of the free world, I implore the American Electorate to vote in someone who is best to lead the free world by standing up to Authoritarians and Dictators, not kissing their ass like some emasculated Dictator wannabe.
Think of the countries that Autocrats govern over and look at the standard of living that occurs there. The average Russian makes less per month than someone living in India (another authoritarian country). In China, Xi has at times used extreme measures to control the population and most live in squalor earning less that $600 per month. Then there is Kim Jong Un, a communist dictator where people earn a whopping $80 per month and famine is a constant threat. Yet these regimes are that Donald Trump Idolizes, which makes no sense given he claims to be a Capitalist. The average monthly Salary in the US is around $5,000 per month, so why would any American want an Authoritarian regime to run the country given the economic train wreck that has occurred in these other countries?
America needs to realize that the leader of the Free World need to be someone who acts as the leader of the Free World and not act like kiss ass subservient wimp towards leaders who brutalize their populations and constantly threaten all their neighbors? A true Leader of the Free World stands up and call these dictators out for their economic failures, oppression and terrorist cyber attacks on Western infrastructure. The Leader of the Free World does not call them strong, intelligent and powerful, with envious adulation.
Look at how Trump has had on condemnation of Putin for the recent political assassination of Alexander Navalny. Instead of acknowledging Putin as a ruthless tyrant, Trump tries to equate himself as a political victim similar to Navalny. Yes, Navalny was in a Siberian Penal Colony, had no due process, but Trump is a victim, who travels freely, has access to food and medical care, and gets to play golf. A true politicial prisoner…..
Electing the Leader of the Free World also means not electing someone who is always whining they are a “victim”, and everyone is against him. That is the last thing anyone wants to hear from their leader. True Leaders don’t go on about how they are “victims”, whenever things don’t go their way. True Leaders owe up to mistakes, learn from them and diligently try to ensure they don’t happen again. True Leaders of the Free World worry about citizens everywhere and standup for injustices, they don’t act like 5 year olds throwing a tantrum because no one likes him.
Sometimes it is hard to look at things when you are so close to the issue. It is hard to be constructive in one’s analysis of what is the true situation going on when one is emotionally involved. Americans have been pulled by two polar opposite parties and narratives, to the point where trust of one another is difficult at best and so the undeniable truth often gets lost.
If a friend of yours was getting involved with people guiding him to making poor life choices that will affect a lot of people close to them, would you not step up and say something to them? You would if you are a true friend. I have watched what is going on and reported by not only US news, but other North American and European News agencies with regards to the US political system. I have read books by authors of both sides as I believe in looking at things from all sides.
So I want to say to all my Americans friends as a person who cannot vote in your elections but has to hope that Americans realize the enormous responsibility of electing a President and defacto Leader of the Free World, electing Donald Trump, is not in the best interest of Americans and the Free World period. Trump has sided with conspiracy and lies, he wants to be a dictator and destroy American Democracy to empower his masters, Putin, Xi, and Un, and turn his back on decades long allies and trading partners.
An election of Donald Trump would not only result in serious harm to the tenets Americans hold most dear, Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, it would affect democracy throughout Western nations legitimizing the image of Authoritarianism.
