Why haven't I seen "Despotic leader of an increasingly isolated North American country embroiled in several wars threatens violence after elections." headlines?

"Known for his cantankerous nature, racist vitriol & inability to see past his nose, the Last King of Mar-a-Lago, rules the 50 independent North American states with a heavy hand"
"The international community - led by the Addis Ababa-based African Union Commission - has issued a statement calling for calm & condemning the threats of violence"
"Speaking on the ticking timebomb that could send shockwaves in an otherwise peaceful region, a highly esteemed commentator notes that the situation should be dealt with delicately."
"Tensions are always high there. It's like a boiling pot. Remember, this is a country built on slavery, a military industrial complex & centuries of racist segregation."
