First, the UN would need standards....in order to examine them and cause them to be “higher”.
The UN is a collection of idiots exceeded only by the White House, the West Wing of felon/cretins...and our State Department.
I recall when the UN threatened to pull its headquarters out of the U.S. over some nonsense, Ronald Reagan said something like, “Don’t let the door hit you on the way out”.
The UN reminds me of the Justice League, but where Lex Luthor and the Joker both have permanent seats on the Security Council and veto power.
Superman: We just got word that a terrorist is attacking Tokyo, let’s go Justice League.
Joker: Wait. I don’t think so. Sit your cape wearing butt down.
Batman: But we have to stop the terrorist.
Wonder Woman: I agree, let’s go!
Lex Luthor: I’m going to abstain from this vote.
Joker: And I veto the action.

You mean the same UN that once had a Nazi War Criminal for Secretary General?
What are we to make of an organization which gives the same vote to the racist butcher Robert Mugabe, as it gives to the country of Japan?
As Mark Styen has said, the UN is what you get when you mix one half-gallon of Haagen-Daas (The US, Great Britain, France, Australia, Israel, in short liberal democracies) with a measure of dog feces (Third World despots and kleptocracies and other various regimes run by tyrants and crazies). The result resembles dog poop a lot more than ice cream!
We should get the heck out and form another international body. Chances of that happening with this admin - zero.
Uh no... the UN is a club in need of dissolution.
The UN needs to be shipped off to those countries, who enjoy thier scalawag envoys performing illegal acts with diplomatic immunity, such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia (I still think we owe them a thermonuclear response for 9/11), or any of the world’s tin-horn dicktatorships.
