The ‘Sobbing Superpower’

From the outside, it must seem strange to watch the richest and most powerful nation in the history of the world choose its path by means of moral scolding and sanctimonious posturing, both positions washed in on millions of litres of high-octane American tears.

I feel your pain. Really, I do. I weep.”
