America wouldn’t have any allies if it judged them all based on whether they governed themselves according to the American Constitution.

We allied with the USSR in World War II but we had a common enemy with the Nazis. We fought in Korea to support the regime of Syngman Rhee, who was the lesser of two evils, compared to the Communist regime in North Korea. We supported Sadaam Hussein in the 1980s in his war against the Iranian mullahs.

The three largest European nations, Britain, France, and Germany, have become odious, under anarcho-tyrannical regimes. With the exceptions of Hungary and Slovakia and to some extent Italy and Poland, all of Europe is under the grip of authoritarian, cultural Marxist regimes. Europe's main potential threat is Russia, a country that can't defeat Ukraine after three years of war. If Russia were stronger, an alliance with the British, Germans, and French would be advisable.
