Here's the thing - in the developed world, most of us are having a good laugh at the US, yes, but in the back of our minds there's this thought we're all trying not to think about...
Look. It's not a pleasant truth, but the fact is something horrible is going to happen. Every couple of years, something horrible just happens. Maybe it will be an earthquake or a hurricane. Maybe a large scale terror attack occurs, or a US ally gets attacked leading to a shooting war. Its going to happen. And, right now, the US government is not only completely, utterly, WOEFULLY unprepared for ANY sort of crisis, but they show no signs that they will get their shit together any time soon (if ever).
So yeah, we're having a chuckle. But in that "the only possible reaction is nervous laughter cause these fuckheads are going to get people killed with their incompetence" kind of way.
