The United States has regained respect.

Six months into Joe Biden's presidency, approval ratings of U.S. leadership around the world had largely rebounded from the record-low ratings observed during the Trump administration.

​

A new Gallup report shows that as of early August 2021, across 46 countries and territories, median approval of U.S. leadership stood at 49%. This rating is up from the 30% median approval at the end of Trump's presidency...

​

[T]he substantial gains across so many countries halfway through 2021 make it unlikely that the final rating for Biden's first year in office could retreat to his predecessor's levels...

In the first few hours of his presidency, Biden rejoined the Paris Climate Accord and halted Trump's decision to leave the World Health Organization. And, in his first foreign policy speech as president, Biden vowed to repair U.S. alliances through diplomacy and restore the image of the U.S.

These words and actions likely reassured many longtime U.S. allies and the international community at large and may have contributed to the surge in approval ratings across most of the 46 countries and territories surveyed through the first half of 2021.

​

A conspicuous exception is the Russian Federation where approval of the U.S. president plummeted to 13% - consistent with Putin's joining with China's Xi in long refusing to recognize the President's election. The KGB thug had been exposed as interfering in the 2016 U.S. presidential election to help Trump and hurt Clinton.

I don't think I have ever laughed more than during Trump's Europe tour.

 

OH, what comfort that brings me while my pitiful dollars purchase less and LESS every time I pull my wallet out...to think of all the restful sleep I'll now obtain knowing that whilst I slumber the WORLD'S Swamp Critters "now respect" OUR Swamp Critter...

 

And the world is laughing at the people who claim that.
They are watching the worst circus act in the world- from a safer distance that American citizens.
What they actually see is very much like this, and a lot more embarrassing because it's the "leaders" of America instead of this critter who holds no political power.

 

that was Trump leaving office, lol

 

The inflatable Trump baby was also very funny.

 

And that kind of gross denial of what is surrounding you right now, created by the people you support, is why they laugh at you.
When your ship is on the rocks and going down and you say "We meant to do that, it doesn't matter", you just don't look credible.
Worse- you prevent yourself from fixing the disaster your own people have created, because you don't want to admit it's a disaster.
We've seen that happen over an over with small children. Adults, at least those who have grown up mentally as well as physically- don't do that anymore.

Lying to yourself, deluding yourself, is never going to have a happy ending.

 

Trump lost, some need to get over it, America gave him the boot...

 

You may have missed it. The American electorate killed the joke on November 3, 2020.

Please present any credible surveys such as Gallup's whose findings you prefer.

 

Obesity shows a lack of self-discipline. That's not even the worst thing about Trump. What is worse is his denial of reality.

To this day he believes that the election was rigged.

 

Alienation from the international community (with conspicuous exceptions) seemed to delight the weird worshippers. For some, he was a fellow of infinite jest.

​

 

I've always asked, why should the US not tremble in terror that foreigners like our leaders more than we do? Trump was telling Nato nations they have to do more of their own self defense and he was right. And of course they hated him for that. They wanted a relatively free ride. No doubt Biden's back to shouting, "next several rounds on the US tab!" No doubt they like him better.

 

And the sun is not coming up tomorrow. There comes a time in a string of the endless BS that those spreading it look like total fools, self-deluding shills.
Trump had his faults, and I've never denied that- but everyone has faults, and when you hire someone for a critical job, you don't make that decision pivot on personality- you use performance.
Trump had faults, and strong performance. Biden- has nothing but faults and BS. He lies every time he speaks, violates federal laws everyday. Man has failed to do anything right so far, and that doesn't look like it will improve. Funny you don't seem to notice that.

Anyone who really believes that Trump lost is telling himself what he wants to hear to avoid facing what he knows is true.
As one note put it- there is no way that a man who can bring 50,000 people to a rally is never going to lose an election to a man who could only attract a few hundred to his rally in the same state, Pennsylvania.
Even if you cut Trumps reported numbers in half and double Bidens- Biden is not in the race at all. Never legitimately- and that leaves more than a probably cause to know it's not legit.
All the claims of "no proof of fraud" are like someone claiming that a magician's trick is really magic, not a trick. None of 5,000 people watching it know how it was done- but they all damn sure know it not magic.

Comes down to how gullible you are; how much of that you can stomach.

 

So do 50 million Americans. But you don't want to consider why.... Denial is safer.

 

It is laughable that the left are determined to trot out such an obvious lie. World opinion at least as expressed by several of our closest allies certainly doesn't cast a positive or improved aspect to our relationships. Too many examples of this. The blind trying to lead the blind doesn't bode well for democrats.

 

Is Donald claiming that number?

The votes were counted anew several times and Trump failed with dozens of lawsuits for election fraud. No sane-minded person still believes that the election was rigged.

 

I don't know where you're getting your 50 million numbers, which at face value is impressive. But what I'm finding is AT BEST only 3/4's of tRump voters believe he won. Does that add up to 50 million, IDK. Even if it does the VAST majority of Americans believe tRump LOST. Because he AbsaByGodLutely DID!

 

So true.

"We had an election that was stolen from us!
It was a landslide election and everyone knows it,
especially the other side!"

McConnell's final remark to Trump was,
"You lost the election!"
​

 

Rather than vapid whining, just present any and all alternative surveys to Gallup's extensive one.

What empirical data can you reference?

 

What about Biden's ratings here in the good old USA? Tank city. If he makes it to the end of his 4 year term his ratings will only be favorable with Hunter.

 

Actually, "tank city" they aren't. Overall he's doing better than tRump at the same point in their presidencies. Not great but he's rebounding.

 

He knows he lost, he knew before the election from internal polling. It's the grift that keeps on giving.

He certainly was not respected.

Spot on and on target.

 

One inevitably recalls the piscene-gobbed Loser's noble effusion:

"One must be able to lose with dignity.
So true!"
​

 

He was taught by the best, THE DNC WAY


Now he works his magic on foreign ass
