The global consensus that Trump reeks leaves a stench upon America.

America’s image has tumbled during Trump’s presidency.
Can Biden turn it around?
The Gallup organization conducts annual surveys assessing how others assess U.S. leadership. In 20 of 29 countries where Gallup has completed these surveys, approval ratings “are at new lows or they tie the previous low,” according to the report released last week. Among the countries where approval hit new lows are two of the nation’s staunchest allies, Germany and Britain.
Four years ago, before Trump became president, 43 percent of Germans had a positive impression of the United States as a leader in the world. Today just 6 percent approve. In the United Kingdom, 15 percent say they approve. More Russians — 18 percent — approve of American leadership internationally than Brits or Germans.

Gallup’s findings square with a Pew Research Center report of a few months ago. Pew’s regular survey asks whether people elsewhere have a favorable or unfavorable view of the United States. Among the nations where favorable impressions hit record lows or roughly tied them this year were a who’s who of traditional friends: the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, Canada and Australia.
[President Biden,] the former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee has promised to reengage constructively with other nations, as has his designee for secretary of state, Antony Blinken. That will begin with allies in Europe, who have been treated badly by the current president.
“When he thinks foreign policy, he thinks allies, and when he thinks allies, he thinks Europe,” said Ivo Daalder, former ambassador to NATO ...
Trump has spurned or hectored allies in Europe and questioned the value of transatlantic alliances. Biden will embrace them all.
Showing up and saying the right words will be helpful in changing perceptions of the United States, but that might be only a first step in what could be a more challenging mission.
Biden will look to European allies for help in dealing with some of the most important foreign policy issues that await him, from U.S. posture toward Russia to Biden’s desire to change relations with Iran after Trump pulled out of the joint nuclear agreement.

I think so. The key is that we realized our mistake and voted him out, resoundingly. It would have been significantly different if we had voted him back in the same way. We are not the "ugly Americans" that many were afraid we might be becoming.

Anecdotally, overseas friends and family of mine essentially just breathed a sigh of relief and look at it as a one-off.
 
It tumbled long before Trump. Yes Trump continued that trend but the rest of the world is tired of our lies and belief that only the U.S. millionaires should be thriving. That's highly unlikely to stop under Biden.

Most of the world cares less who our president is. They care about us undermining their economies and dropping bombs on them.

Why don't we skip your ignorant bullshit and get right to the part where you discuss the price tag? The details of how you will purchase respect.....


The election is over. Let's get to the dirty little details of policy.

I'm not so sure, maybe. However with this extended election challenge brought on by Trump and his buddies and the fact that quite honestly someone like Trump could be elected again I tend to think our allies have to be questioning any sort of reliance or cooperation having to do with the United States may end up biting them in the ass one day.

No worreis.

I'm sure dementia Joe will be drawing red lines in the sand in no time with the Middle East in flames, the Arab piece accord with Israel ripped up, and Iran pumped full of billions of dollars again in no time.

Oh, and maybe Putin can then invade another country like he did the Ukraine while Obama was in office.

If you believe that squandering respect does not have an exorbitant cost, you can opt for contempt and call it a bargain.

It has nothing to do with Sleepy Joe's dementia however.

Even if he was with it, all the Extremist Wing of the Democrat Party knows is groveling to the Eurotrash, Iranians and Pals.

The ones we don't drop bombs on we try and undermine their economies in large part. And if we aren't dropping bombs on them we try and get them involved. The world is tired of it.
