I love how the US has totally abandoned the idea of simply doing anything to prove itself as a worthwhile country worthy of respect.

If anything it feels more like this country is actually just Europe’s Israel. The US is Europe’s personal attack dog to do the dirty work while European nations can pretend their hands are cleaner than they actually are.

Then when you suggest actually making stuff, like something as simple as California to stop passive-aggressively taking its time on the hsr to try to get people to want to cancel it. The entirety of the American people look at you like you have two heads.
