"Historically, when foreign despots arrest their political opponents on, pardon the pun, trumped-up charges, the United States government has strongly denounced such actions, citing “democracy”.

“Think what you want about former President Trump and the reasons he’s being indicted. But just imagine if this happened in any other country, where a government arrested the main opposition candidate. The United States’ ability to use “democracy” as foreign policy is gone.”
