Lots of countries currently fall into the category of "laughing stock" politically

Like I said, we dont matter and I dont get why people can't wrap their heads around that. We influence no Global policy, we are leaders of nothing and we happen to be a political laughingstock.
Now...why are we a political laughingstock?
Two reasons.
1. We just happen to be at the top of the news cycle right now. Pretty much the most notable thing Trudeau has done during his tenure is learn how to 'Fail Spectacularly.'
2. The Global audience thinks its cute that we think we're important.
