MODERATORS
 

The world is more divided than ever, but there’s still something (nearly) everyone agrees on: The U.S. is unloved.

The United States is becoming less popular globally in the aftermath of Donald Trump’s return to the White House, according to new data.

The 2025 Democracy Perception Index summarizes attitudes toward democracy, geopolitics and global power players, and canvassed more than 110,000 respondents across 100 countries.

A majority of people surveyed had an overall negative perception of the U.S., marking a steep decline from last year. America’s reputation took a particularly massive hit in EU countries — perhaps unsurprisingly, as U.S. President Donald Trump has called the bloc “horrible,” “pathetic” and “formed to screw the United States.”

Well that's quite clearly Biden's fault, or wait, was it that tan suit wearing bloke's fault ?

All hail the mighty trump, may he poop on his golden toilet in eternity. ( Well, dropping dead on it Elvis style could work out great, then just leave him there. )

Dear Leader does not care about the opinions of foreign countries. Dear Leader knows that a strong and glorious nation only cares about itself. This is inline with proper adherence to the principals of Juche. Glory to the Supreme Leader and to the party.

Otherwise, I'd avoid that dump like the plague

Just don't let ICE find out about your username. Pretty sure that will fall under their "porn ban" excuse for disappearing people to El Salvador soon.

Now that a light is shown on the piece of human shit in office and his fellow MAGAts who would want to have anything to do with us except other terrible countries like Russia.
