    This is the US and it always has been. The current administration is just stupider than previous ones. They don’t realize that hiding US war crimes served a purpose. They think bragging about their depravity will halt American decline. In reality, it will do the opposite as people like you lose faith in the inherent virtue of the American project.

      current administration is just stupider

      Imagine that they are not. What if they figured that they can’t hide the crimes and that they are going to do so many that they have to get the population used to it. Trump is no mistake but a solution.
