Respect for USA Grows Dramatically Under Biden

Trump frequently says that other countries respected us more when he was President. As usual, he was lying through his teeth.

European Central Bank President Christine Lagard warned the possible re-election of Trump poses “a clear threat” to Europe. “If we are to draw lessons from history, as in the way he managed the four years of his mandate, it is clearly a threat.”

What is very scary for me when thinking of this. His cult followers care so little what other countries think or feel about the USA. Isolationism runs deep in them.

I wonder how they scored in Hungary, where they seem to prefer dictatorship? MAGAMorons are apparently in love with Orban.

Hungary is the only country surveyed where fewer than half see the U.S. favorably.

MAGAMorons love Orban not because of dictatorship but because he put up a fence at the border without hesitation in the time of Frau Merkel.
