There is "international law", but no "international police". So the law only as good as long as everyone follow it - so not very good either.

Then you have major power like Russia that constantly abuse it while trying to cover its ass with "internatiomal law" once they themself get hit. This is whem you get system is broken.

I get it suck for people inside the US to see democracy dismantled, but honestly I dont mind Trump to deal with dictators and repressive regimes.

Putin, friends and alike put a lot of effort to prove that only power should matter so its a good irony to see Trump dealing with them their way.

Well, America is the police for parts of the world. Unfortunately, the police is also criminal...

I don't get the impression this is or ever will be a goal. To an outsider it seems more like he wants to be one of the repressors.

Accepting multiple massive bribes from Crown Prince MBS Bonesaw in plane sight, and giving Putin free rein to set terms for war and peace in Ukraine?
