https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/3093cac1-c1da-41d9-b34d-e0861594cc0e Political scientist and international relations scholar John Mearsheimer criticised US President Donald Trump’s “willingness to completely ignore the law” during an interview with Judge Andrew Napolitano on Thursday. He drew comparisons between Trump’s comments on the protests in Iran and the protests in the US, which began after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent killed a 37-year-old American woman in Minneapolis on January 7. He said that Trump’s support for the protesters in Iran versus his decision to crackdown on protesters in the US is because he “doesn’t think… that the law applies to him”.
