So if he says it to Americans, it's admitting our faults.
If he says it to non-Americans, it's criticism of America?
It's the same thing, to begin with. The internet means that non-Americans can see him "admitting our faults" to Americans....does it instantly turn into criticism when a non-American is viewing it or hearing it? The logic just doesn't make sense.
