Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and North Korea's maximum nepo baby, Kim Jong Un, gathered to celebrate the 80th anniversary of Japan's surrender in World War II. The American president was not invited: After all, what role did the United States play in defeating Japan and liberating Eurasia?
