The US government thinks it has the right to interfere in the elections of other countries. I am afraid that once the US government elected itself the world’s policeman, people elsewhere started to wonder why they had no say in the matter.

I can only quote my earlier response to him:

@gracchus

The only part you missed is discussing how the U.S. has been meddling in foreign elections for decades (including those in former Soviet republics), therefore this Russian interference is nothing to worry about by the famous “two wrongs don’t make a right, but they cancel each-other out” principle.

To be clear, I understand this is not what you’re claiming, but it is a standard “useful idiot” talking point.
