Fellow United States people, do you care what other nations think of you or your country?

The country has been doing better in those 9 months than it had under trump. Trolling shouldn't be allowed.

To a degree, I care. Perception and how your allied countries see you IS important for everything from trade deals to import/ exports from other countries, so a negative perception from other countries effects everyone on a personal level in some way, and I have been completely embarrassed before by the actions off my country, and the history we have, many times. When we have a president that openly paid for sex while married, made fun of handicapped people on live TV, and went into a days long twitter rant when the escort he paid for said he had a tiny dick, yeah, I was embarrassed and couldn't help but think of how much a joke we must seem to other countries. He was America's representative, and that's how he chose to act. It was embarrassing.

But at the same time, no country is without embarrassment and shameful history, the US is just the on that's always taking the spot light because of it's overwhelming hubris and forced ideology on others for over a century and now it's been on the decline for the last few decades.

Trade deals etc are based on what the other country acquires, not likeability.

I agree to a certain extent. An example on my end would be Trump's pissing match with China over trade deals. That fiasco hurt my bottom line at my job, because increased costs from the tariffs disagreement didn't effect vendors at all, they simply rolled the cost down the ladder to the people selling the materials. My cost went up dramatically, but the contract agreements I have are set, so I had to eat the cost effecting my profit margins (and my commission).

I get that money and desired products overcomes perception between trade deals, but at the same time I think it's harder to negotiate fair deals when perception is overwhelmingly negative. Also, It hurts the US export market when other countries are boycotting American products due to it's perception like Canada and China.

It hurts trade deals when the perception is that the deal is unequal. And yes, tariffs do not hurt the country they are against. Never have but so many trumpers celebrated that. See what it did to the farmers, but I doubt people will ever learn.

Yes, at least when it comes to tourism, immigration, and trades (reputation can play a role on how people treat Americans visiting other countries or when foreign visitors or companies come to America.)...

Taking Trump shows you have no respect for democracy or our Republic.

You have nothing to show for in placing your lot in with Trump. He’s not only incompetent, his character is amongst the most vile and corrupt there exists outside of prison (you don’t think an argument for Trump’s racism can be made? 😂), of which the only reason he’s avoided is due to the privilege he was born into alongside a trail of cowardly sycophants who will do his bidding, and he’s further a traitor.

Biden could be the most incompetent president we’ve ever suffered and Trump the most competent, and I’d STILL vote for him, because hell if I’d ever willingly put my backing behind someone who‘s so blatantly demonstrated utter contempt and disregard for our democracy and the Constitution, and who in fact has taken every initiative to denigrate and dump on them for his own gain.

You would, and that speaks loudly enough on its own.

Do you ever see the news?

@JimB: Do you?

Yes. But apparently you get all your news from right wing propaganda sites.

Your problem is you don't get the news. Do you know that Biden owes up to $ 500,000 dollars in back taxes. Of course not that will never be on the main stream media story list but it is true, or that an Agent for Hillary Clinton was behind the whole Russian hoax. I tell you what you list all of Bidens accomplishments in the last nine months and I will list all the screw ups and problems he caused and we will see who is correct concerning Biden.

I do get the news. That's how I know your posts are BS. Facts say you're lying again Jim.

No I am not lying every thing I just posted is the truth. I believe you try to get the news but your news outlets are not bring honest with you. They will not give you all of the perennate news. In order to be objective you must have all of the news good or bad. In my career when I was working I had to make decisions sometimes where people's lives where in danger and I needed as many facts as I could get in a short time in order to make the best decision. I was always seconded guessed but I could always defend my decisions with logic because of good information.

Nope.
