They aren’t exceptional. They’re just like Russia.
Given that Russia has a competent government and isn’t on a verge of a civil war, not sure in what way America is like Russia.

Yeah, I call a government that defeated NATO in Ukraine and manged to grow the economy despite the sanctions competent.
We are not just like Russia.
We aren’t exceptional though, you got that right. America hasn’t been exceptional in decades.

He already did that the first time.
This time he’ll double (or triple) down on that.
It is difficult to get Drezner to understand that American exceptionalism is already dead when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.
