> I would expect they would retaliate against the ICC if the ICC issued an arrest warrant for Xi Jinping.
Funny that we’re using this example when the ICC has issued a warrant against someone who isn’t the US head of state

The ICC seems to have no problem issuing arrest warrants for government leaders of countries allied with the US involved in conflicts located in territories where there are no fully UN recognized State Parties to the Rome Statue. Additionally the ICC has ongoing investigations into US personnel directly. The ICC has arguably given the US sufficient justification for some form of retaliation(i.e. sanctions) for jurisdictional overreach.

More like the US don’t understand when the ICC is allowed to act
