This got me thinking about how it’s not uncommon for Russia to collect failed dictators and give them shelter. And it would be absolutely on-brand for this new era for the U.S. to start doing the same.
I have a sense that dictators are weakened when the world observes other dictators facing consequences, which may be all it takes to want to shelter them.
Breaking an ankle bracelet and fleeing an international manhunt is a risky endeavour! Although I suppose world leaders tend to be risk takers. "I deserve the top job, and I'm going to scratch and claw my way to get it" isn't exactly a well-balanced thought.
