- capableweb 7y agoWhen I wrote "we in the rest of the world is very aware of that and frankly a bit tired of it" I wasn't referring to any particular person, could be Trump, could be Clinton or could be Obama. No one except the US wants the US to keep playing world police/leader. This is the time to work together, not for one country to be the leader.

Best of luck in Spain.
