Turkey isn't a real democracy anymore for around a decade now. While the US has always had its problems, and they have gotten worse over time, the situation has been massively worse in Turkey for a long time.

this has been true since erdogan's reign started 11 years ago, at least the US got 4 years of weimar in-between
Hehe, yeah this is classic Erdogan
Crazy kid
Member during Trumps first term, when Erdogan's personal security detail terrorized Turkish protestors outside the white house? The US has been a shithole country the entire time.
Disagree. The US imploding would do a ton of good for the developing world.
While true, Erdogan has also been very supportive of Ukraine and Europe emerging as a power independent of America.
So, despite having spent the past decade destroying Turkish democracy, he may still be remembered more positively than Donald Trump.
Fash are fash. Not worth remembering at all.
