America being the worldwide laughingstock when it comes to politics has lost it's charm. The last few years Idiocracy has become the better alternative.
The only people that think this are people obsessed with American media.
David Cameron has some association with a pig.
Modi has said some bizarre things about being a demigod.
Macron lectured a kid for saying "How's it going Manu?" instead of "How's to going, Mr. President"
Germany has a long history of very dumb policies, not unique to any specific politician. Such as banning protestors from chanting in any language other than English or German.
And many other things. Politics have dumb things and dumb people everywhere*- it's not uniquely American. American politics are just the most widely publicized internationally.
I remember the German politician who had scat fetish/toilet fetish content posted by himself all over the internet

Of course the party he's in is the FDP (libertarians)
They're not libertarians, just neoliberals
They're not?
They are libertarian for the most part. The person who responded to you seems to be an (American) libertarian himself so perhaps he's just trying to distance his ideology from this.
according to wikipedia's sources it's more liberalism. it's just that neolib policies have quite a bit in common with libertarianism, since the latter is kinda a radical variant.
