This is the other end of the endless bullshit from the Trump administration

Flooding the Zone with Bullshit isn't just beneficial for the Trump administration. The open displays of corruption and non-stop media coverage give other oppressive governments cover to do things like this.

  1. Coverage of stories like this is getting lost in the frantic coverage of every single bullshit thing Trump does every single day.

  2. The extreme level of corruption on display in the USA means small antisocial decisions by oppressive governments will be viewed less negatively, because they're now being compared to the USA and the Trump administration. "Well, our government sucks, but at least they're not as bad as the Americans!"
