Comedy in the morning. “The principled international order”... LOL. And how dare they interfere in our election or in who leads another country? Don’t they know only WE are allowed to do that? Brexit, Israel, Russia, India, France, Australia are just a few of the elections we have actively inserted ourselves into.
What you have described IS the “international order.” Plus support for forcible overthrow of governments in Guatamala (Arbenz), Chili (Allende), Congo (Lumumba), and most notably Iran (Mossadegh). Problem is - other countries who don’t seem to want to go along with that arrangement.
