"Yeah, we are the world's No. 1 bully, and we're using our immense, unrivaled power to rule over those who have less power. And we're doing it with impunity, declared Johnson. And this sends a shocking message to the world that America is indeed the-, what did they used to call? The great hand of Satan, or something like that? I mean, America under the Trump regime is demonstrating that that moniker was entirely accurate."
"what did they used to call? The great hand of Satan, or something like that? I mean, America under the Trump regime is demonstrating that that moniker was entirely accurate. The Great Satan, that's what we have become in this country when we can start killing people with impunity. It's really shocking to the conscience, and it's an affront to our basic humanity. No longer can Americans say that we are exceptional."
Representative Hank Johnson condemned U.S. military actions as evidence of unchecked American power, calling the nation the "Great Satan" and accusing it of ruling weaker actors with impunity. He described the behavior as shocking to the conscience and an affront to basic humanity, asserting that such actions negate claims of American exceptionalism. The remark followed discussion of President Donald Trump's strikes on alleged drug runners in the Western Hemisphere during an appearance on The Dean Obeidallah Show. The term "Great Satan" originated during Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution; Iran is described as a major state sponsor of terrorism with a history of targeting Americans.
