JD Vance briskly marched up to Air Force 2, Kamala Harris’ plane, planning to give political reporters a show as he confronted the vice president uninvited on Wednesday.

    The only people that think this are people obsessed with American media.

    David Cameron has some association with a pig.

    Modi has said some bizarre things about being a demigod.

    Macron lectured a kid for saying “How’s it going Manu?” instead of “How’s to going, Mr. President”

    Germany has a long history of very dumb policies, not unique to any specific politician. Such as banning protestors from chanting in any language other than English or German.

    And many other things. Politics have dumb things and dumb people everywhere*- it’s not uniquely American. American politics are just the most widely publicized internationally.
