America often acts it's own self interests which are going to run counter to the world sometimes. But if I am chosing between voting to benefit my fellow Americans or some other country... it's gonna be America. I expect and witness the same from every other country as well.

Toppling elected governments, propping up dictators, attacking countries without reason, suppoting terrorists all in the name of self interest.

Don't feel bad if the world wishes the same to your country.

We do and we dont. Almost 350 million people have differences of opinion quite frequently. Thankfully most of the world thinks our positives outweighs our negatives.

Either that or they are too weak to stop us in any meaningful way. We've seen how many genocides over the past few years from superpowers and no one does anything? Only way you'll see a real check on America or China's power is through a world War which everyone rightfully wants to avoid.

Other way is to use your tactics of election interference on you and gift you Trump.

Yeah, always an option. I mean it won't alleviate any of the world's problems but if you like chaos and death by America's hands it's an option counties can take.

Chaos and death by American hands with chaos and death in America too please.
