I grew up in Canada, where the United States represented a powerful ideal of security and something to admire, something you could rely upon. I don’t think there are many Canadians who feel that now. I don’t think there are many Danes who feel that now. I don’t think there are many true friends of America who feel it now. But I think there are a lot of enemies of the United States that feel relieved and grateful that the United States no longer pretends to be more, but has agreed under Donald Trump to be less—hence the gold bar: useless, shiny, gonna be put in a vault somewhere, not do anything except endure as a kind of memento of shame and disgrace of this once so admired, gleaming democracy.
