Isn't it the typical hypocrisy for the

fascists like Crumb the 1st and Rubio to argue that anybody criticizing their foreign policy conduct should be subject to deportation while at the same time they and others in their cabal go to foreign countries and criticize those countries for their conduct of foreign policy? Cancellation of visas or denial of entry to a country should go both ways shouldn't it? Unless of course your entire life is marked by standing for hypocritical episodes one after the other.

I have before strongly encouraged countries to take at least these steps in return and reiterate that stance now. It is far more honorable and defensible to fight for and explain how you fought for a moral and ethical matter of equal treatment than it is to explain bowing down and groveling while being kicked in the face.

You actually expect these assholes to obey the rules of logic or any other laws or basic rules of conduct?

what I'm saying and the purpose of my comment. It is not to argue that there is, or should be, an expectation that horrible people will behave properly. I am imploring countries to not lay down like dogs and at the same time calling out the hypocrisy of the fascists words and deeds as we should all do.
