"We always make the mistake in the United States of America in Democratic or Republican administrations alike is we tend to embrace the despot that's least troublesome to us. That should not be the way we view things"

This quote by Anthony Weiner is an objection of the United States' diplomacy. He is suggesting that the US tends to forget the overbearing activities of specific international leaders if they are not too troublesome to the US. He thinks that this need to not be the way the United States sights international leaders, and that the US should not be so fast to welcome despots. He is recommending that the US needs to take an extra critical position when it concerns foreign leaders, and not just approve them because they are not also bothersome. This quote is a suggestion that the US need to not be so quick to neglect the overbearing activities of foreign leaders, and also should rather take an extra crucial position when it concerns foreign policy.
