Interesting that in China you need a permit even to export a coffee, and it must be a hand-picked company approved by the CCP, isn’t it?

Interesting that media outlets like Paramount have to cancel shows like Steve Colbert, despite their popularity, because Trump, your mentally challenged dictator can't handle any critcism, much like any leader of a Third World country, isn't it?
Luckily Trump ain’t my president, so I can only share your concerns about the ongoing American democracy backsliding
Yep, it's quickly becoming a Third World country.
Edit for the downvote: Think about it, you elected a tinpot dictator and you allow him to continue eroding your rights. America is a Third World country with very high incarceration rates, a poor health care system, evidenced by the decline in life expectancy, and your education system is in a shambles. Armed guards in public schools? Third World conditions. Face it.
