The US wants to have its cake and eat it too. It wants to be considered a democratic, competition-friendly, rules conforming country but will act as an autocratic anti-competitive bully against other nations when it sees fit. Of course, I never fell for the propaganda, but it is time for people wake up and realize this is a facade.

I'll keep that in mind next time I read about the Chicken Tax that the guide lamp of democratic, free-trade, rules-abiding practices known as Europe put on Americans to protect their own poultry industry.

There are other examples for both Europe and other regions, but that's what instantly pops into my mind.
