  Because he’s some sort of middle eastern dictator. Figurehead of a religion of intolerance and hatred, concerned almost entirely with wealth derived from fossil fuels, utterly irredeemable personality.

  Because US is a banana republic with strong military.

  Because he might not be “Middle Eastern” or “Dictator” but he behaves exactly like “some sort of Middle Eastern Dictator”.

  To ask for “favors” later. Clearly money sways him, he’s imposing tariffs on Brazil because “they’ve never been good to us”, meaning “they don’t give USA enough money”. It’s all aboutoney and how he can get it into him and his pedo friends pockets.

    I can blame them. It sets a very dangerous precedent and tacitly legitimises the maga party’s bad behaviour.

  Because he’s pretty much that. Idk about the middle eastern part (why did you even include that phrase, are you racist?), but he’s definitely a dictator.
