OK, calling him a tyrant isn't correct, but he doesn't have the country's best interest at heart - his interests trump (pun unintended) those of his fellow countrymen and women.
> The US shouldn't be the world's babysitter.
The US declared itself the world's babysitter. The current state of multiple countries that "require babysitting" has been a direct effect of unwanted and unwarranted American involvement. A lot of it was due to an extraordinary fear of communism, but most of it due to corporate interests.
America may like to think itself the best and the most important, but it would do well to reign in its corporations and government from putting fingers where they don't belong. There are far more domestic issues to be tackled first than foreign ones: opiods, healthcare, weapons, internet freedom, monopolies, discrimination, fake news, education, the prison industrial complex, surveillance and lots more. Take care of your citizens first.

- LockAndLol 6y agoThat's one thing I can agree with him on. He doesn't seem to be doing a good job thereof domestically, but internationally that looks different. So yeah, Trump 2020!
