Restoring American Respect in the world.

America’s global image plummeted following the election of President Donald Trump, amid widespread opposition to his administration’s policies and a widely shared lack of confidence in his leadership. Now, as the second anniversary of Trump’s election approaches, a new 25-nation Pew Research Center survey finds that Trump’s international image remains poor, while ratings for the United States are much lower than during Barack Obama’s presidency.

Trump claims U.S. is ‘respected again' in the world. 'Preposterous,' say allies and diplomats

Asked on Monday, President Trump’s 500th day in office, what he considers his top foreign policy achievement, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders quickly replied: "The strengthening of relationships with a number of foreign leaders." The State Department said the same with a tweet: “After 500 days in office, U.S. leadership is back on the world stage as the result of @POTUS's policies.”

It's no surprise that top administration officials have alighted on that claim. The president has been making it at every opportunity — during a rally last week in Nashville, at the U.S. Naval Academy commencement ceremony and in off-the-cuff remarks to White House reporters Friday, just to name the latest audiences.

"We are respected again, I can tell you that. We are respected again," Trump told the naval cadets. "A lot of things have happened. We’re respected again."

The evidence — both in nonpartisan polls and in the increasingly critical remarks of exasperated allies — suggests otherwise.

The president’s bravado is about to be tested dramatically, beginning with a visit Thursday from Japan’s President Shinzo Abe. On the weekend, he is to attend a summit in Canada with other leaders of the G7 — the Group of Seven major powers — and then hold the most high-stakes event of all on Tuesday — his meeting in Singapore with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

After 16 months, however, leaders of long-standing allies like Abe, France’s President Emmanuel Macron, Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel and Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May — all initially deferential to Trump and his famous ego — have grown frustrated and at times disapproving.

Significantly, so have their citizens, increasing the pressure on foreign leaders to distance themselves from Trump’s America. Across 134 countries, the median approval of U.S. leadership dropped 18 points in Trump's first year, to a record low of just 30%, according to a Gallup survey released in January. That was before Trump's decisions to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal and impose tariffs on a number of allies, which further alienated many of them.

The finding echoed a Pew Research Center survey last year that found in all but two of 37 nations polled, Trump got far lower marks than President Obama; the exceptions were Russia and Israel.

I'm not too fond of most of our "allies" so I'm not bothered by this.

Countries don't have friends, they have interests--Henry Kissinger.

Don't care for Kissinger, but that quote is true for all of human history.

Allies are like shit wipes. They may help clean up the immediate mess but if they clog the sewer pipe you're gonna have to call Roto-Rooter.

From what I have read, America's ratings have been relatively low worldwide since 2003/Iraq invasion. The Obama time period between Bush II and Trump didn't really significantly enhance those ratings.

In any case ratings means jack-shit.

Brian4Liberty ignoring a user should come with ignoring the Communist propaganda posts they make as original threads as well

I was flying a lot internationally when that monkey Bush Jr was prez. I was sometimes embarrassed.

They meant a lot to ZippyJuan. It bothered him so much that he made a thread called "Operation Rep Burn a Success." (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?512744-Operation-RepBurn-a-Success) He thought he would get sympathy and get his green bars back, but it only fueled more negs for him! LOL!

Ya , actually if they say they like you , translation of that means they expect to be able to take advantage of you .
