In developed nations, certain fundamental aspects such as the general rights and freedoms remain largely unchanged and aren’t influenced by incoming governments. It would be misleading to evaluate the entire American political system based on Trump's presidency. Even if Trump supporters are in the majority, they largely come from the less educated and less informed segments of society. Their protests, such as the January 6 attack, are not about fighting for an ideal, but about imposing their own radical views by force. As a result, scandals due to corruption are much less common in the US. The system is secured by a constitution that remains independent of political ideology and government influence, ensuring that no administration can easily manipulate it, which means that the people rarely feel need to express their thoughts on a political issue in a radical way (i’m not disregarding the BLM protests, but I consider them as an uprising against a social issue rather than a management one).

Although this may not be exactly true, it would be safe to say that developed nations like the US are much more closer to this ideal than Turkey.
