It comes from the aggressive cracker privilege of being able to treat the empire as a great spectacle where the most horrifying thing to ever happen is how Donald J. Trump used a butter knife the wrong way as he ordered the murder of non-whites across the globe. Once this attempt falls through, they’ll try going after him for not being fascist enough and daring to pretend to be nice to the ~~inscrutable orientals~~ North Koreans and Russians, which, to be fair, is the one angle that has a non-zero of actually succeeding (though, obviously, the difference is so small that it is practically zero.)
