Nothing says “beacon of liberty” like storming out of the room because another country mentioned your human-rights record. The Trump administration wants the prestige America earned generations ago without practicing any of the principles that created it. Reputation is not hereditary, and credibility is not diplomatic furniture you keep after burning down the house. France did not humiliate America by saying the world has stopped listening. Trump humiliated America by making it true.
I just hope it is not too late to elect adults to come back into congress and begin the shit shoveling to get the US back in balance. This will take decades to repair, providing that we can counteract the short-term amnesia (I think country-wide billboards about the corruption would be a good start) and get past the whole [non-white, non-male, non-Temu-Christian] can't be elected to high office mentality.
France needs to declare the formerly imprisoned felonious slumlord Charles Kushner persona non grata, revoke his credentials as ambassador, and expel him.
Well, not for minorities or immigrants or women or gays or transgender or the poor or the middle class or blue states, but otherwise the US has it nailed. The US is a beacon of liberty for well-off, white, male MAGAts. And our viruses are celebrating their new freedom in spectacular ways.
"The US is a beacon of liberty for well-off, white, male MAGAts." Especially those what come from South Africa bearing fist-fulls of filthy emerald lucre.
Democracy enabled immature and ignorant voters to elect Trump. A well educated, knowledgeable, discerning, mature people would ensure this can never happen again once this is finally over. I hope we survive this and have what is needed to build a far better culture- post Trump.
Well, I mean, at least Dan Negrea didn't call the French "surrender monkeys," which is about the level of respectful discourse I expect from the US UN diplomatic corps these days.
Zut Alors!
I have misplaced my fainting couch. Would someone lend me one? Preferably not one used by Divan Humper.

Oh, the “freedom fries” country - the one that wouldn’t exist without help from the French during the American Revolution - has a sad? How tragic.

Why did New Zealand abstain from the vote?

I'd be living in France right fucking now, if they would have me. I love the fuck out of France.
Well, you can do what you want at the U.N. But I will not stand here and listen to you...badmouth...the United States of America!!!
