Too bad the USA has burned and abandoned the virtues that distinguished us from totalitarian governments such as in China. Claiming those virtues that once distinguished the USA from the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China now sounds hollow, especially from the mouth of Trump. Now it more resembles a tin pot Banana Republic Dictator talking back to a gangster totalitarian dictator. A farce.
