I'm inclined to agree about some puppet governments being better than others.
we just had 2 4-year regimes for comparison since 2016. I absolutely did not like the Orange Man's first term. but then Brandon was installed and made Bush the Lesser and Dan Quayle look like socially beneficent icons of intelligentsia by comparison.
between "Support the Rich" Donnie and "Security State DEI" Joe, I don't have any difficulty choosing which of the two was less destructive from a citizen's perspective.
Your comparison of 80’s Manuel Noriega with Assad is appropriate since Noriega ran a nice drug trade through Panama and apparently so did Assad with Captagon. Follow the money/drugs I always say. Funny how both Reagan and Trump used MAGA. It occurs to me that the two eras also share a car: the 80’s had the stainless steel DeLorean, and we have the stainless steel Cybertruck. Not that “we” can afford either one, but still… back to the future, again. Thanks for writing, I always appreciate it.
