Oh, but he does, the scale of the US and the interconnectedness of the world mean that he fucks over people around the globe, to varying degrees.

Which in turn... fucks over americans

The goal should be to fuck over no one, and when someone is getting the short end of the stick do to things you can't prevent, to dampen the blow as much as possible assist them in other ways. That means if a country is getting exploited for cheaper labor during a current era, we should be pushing other protections and conveniences that can hopefully help to dampen the blow.

Sorry, I would fuck over dictators in a heartbeat.

At least I think I would. Maybe not a great statesmen.

That can directly enable more dictatorship. Giving them fuel that is easy to make into believable propoganda to push on their people to validate lashing back out at other people. No one will hesitate or have reason to care about the American populous getting shit on do to the choices made by these administrations. Their decisions directly screw us over. If everyone is tripping each other and dragging each other down we just progress slower. The reason people starve is do to others being greedy.
