President Donald Trump still seems unable to grasp the fact that the United States is a democracy.
During signing decree Seeking to stop states from regulating artificial intelligence, Trump has complained that states need to “unite” in his approach to AI for the country to gain global dominance over China.
“We must be united. China is united because it has one voice, and that is President Xi Jinping.” [Jinping]. He says, “Do it,” and that’s it. You know, we have a different system,” Trump. said. “But we have a good system, but a good system is only if it is smart.”
When the President spoke while sitting at his desk, he covered his right hand, where a massive mysterious bruise has formed.

Meanwhile, people watching at home were unimpressed by Trump's push for unitary government and his rejection of the so-called “other system” in his own country.
“Yes, it's called DEMOCRACY.” wrote California Governor Gavin Newsom on X.
This is not the first time Trump has dreamed of a different form of government. After a visit to China earlier this year, President said he would like the cabinet secretaries to greet him with stoic acquiescence (even though their meetings have already become a well-documented spectacle of sycophancy).
