I care, because the influence of American politics in other nations politics is undeniable. The shockwaves, caused by Trump's antics, are perceived around the world. Some countries even had/have Trump likened figures in power. I feel like Maga straight up emboldened right wing parties around the world, to get out of the closet and be more verbatim about their cause.
My main worry is, that it's something that's being embraced by a steadily increasing, already big, number of the population, in many countries around the world.
We have a scary political trend here in Germany right now.
