By Western standards, Erdogan is a worthless sack of shit. But Turkey is not part of the West. By Turkish standards, he’s a prince among men.

“By Turkish standards, he’s (Erdogan) a prince among men.”

Turks are voting with their feet.

Erdogan is feared, I’ll give him that.

You have given me a completely different perspective to consider, and I really thank you for that.
