It will give the American public something to pull down when he's deposed. Remember Saddam Hussein's monuments? It will be the first thing to go.

I couldn't identify one Taylor Swift song, but she seems like a really nice person, and from the perspective of someone living overseas, she's a wonderful US ambassador. You all should be proud of her.

In Australia, the prosecution can appeal if they consider the sentence too lenient. I don't think it's very common, but it does happen.

President Duterte of the Philippines believed he could just randomly execute drug dealers, but when he lost the election, his successors, the Marcos family, bundled him into a plane and posted him to the Hague. He has been charged with crimes against humanity. You're next Donald.
