World Leaders Condemn Colorado For Removing Trump From Ballot: US Can’t ‘Lecture Any Other Country’ On ‘Democracy’ Rusty Weiss |Dec 20, 2023 Political Insider
El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, who once described his own country as “Third World,” is saying that the United States has lost the moral high ground regarding democracy.Bukele’s comments are in response to the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision Tuesday to remove former President Donald Trump from their 2024 presidential ballot based on a wild misinterpretation of alleged violations of the 14th Amendment.
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is a rarely cited Civil War-era provision that bars individuals from holding office if they “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion” or “given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.”
The court determined that Trump is ineligible to be on the ballot for president in a 4-3 decision.
“The United States has lost its ability to lecture any other country about ‘democracy,'” Bukele posted to the X social media platform.

Sorry...but I just can't classify the President of El Salvador as a "world leader".
