    this administration

    Based on the other comment you mean the US government? Do you just assume everyone on the internet is American?

      Genuine question, do other countries refer to their current government as “this administration” or “the [leader] administration”?

      In my exposure to non-US political discussions, there seems to be more reference to the majority parties or coalitions, where that’s more important to politics than it is in the US with our far-too-powerful executive branch

      Although I kind of agree with you, I feel like everyone knows when someone refers to this administration as being US in relation to extremely dumb shit at this point
