Trump causes 'major' shift in global view of US

In 26 of the 37 countries, more than half of respondents consider Mr Trump dangerous.

Donald Trump's presidency has had a "major impact on how the world sees the United States", a large new study says.

The survey, by the Pew Research Center, interviewed more than 40,000 people in 37 countries this year.

It concluded that the US president and his policies "are broadly unpopular around the globe".

The survey shows only two of the 37 countries have a better opinion of Mr Trump than they had of his predecessor Barack Obama: Israel and Russia.

But the report indicates many feel their country's relationship with the US will not change over the coming years.

And at home?

The survey focused on international attitudes, but a recent report from Pew found that Mr Trump's approval ratings in his home country have remained low since he took office in January.

It suggests just 39% of Americans think he is doing a good job - dropping to just 7% among black voters.

However, there is still strong support for Mr Trump among his own party: 81% of those who lean or are Republican say he has been doing well, rising to 88% among those who consider themselves more staunchly conservative.

So, you think there are 37 countries in the world ?

You know, your pic seems to display a viable Man. Don't you have a fucking job ? Or don't you people have to work these days in your socialist paradise ?

T^T

I knew a girl once, who would do anything to be popular. Sometimes, it's better to step back and not be so popular

The niggers (obviously not the women we rape those) and anyone looking a bit swarthy do the work over here: tea and cotton plantations. For we are a civil lot. The poor and sick and paupers we like to harvest their organs for a sheckle, obviously not the richer ones as we like to charge them $10 000 dollar for an aspirin and dance on their graves, well when our entitled pockets are not brimming with other peoples hard earned cash.

We are simply too busy having a ball and shooting each other with our guns, setting our police death squads to task with thinning the coon herd and tuning into FOX-shit and the cock wombles twat account and laughing it up.

mwaaahhhh 37 countries is that the best you can do

That survey also tells me the sheer poverty of the Republican Jackals minds: they are a woebegone destitute place of terrible aspect.

There are a lot of socialist countries in EU now that depend on the U.S. to provide military defense so that they can keep paying for the socialist goodies. I'm sure those people see the gravy train coming to an end. It would affect their opinion. Same with the socialist wealth redistribution with the Paris Agreement. But the question is, do we care what they think just because now they'll have to go back to a real work week? I don't.




Musicmystery -> RE: Trump causes 'major' shift in global view of US (6/27/2017 7:30:57 AM)

It's probably a stretch to claim they'll be forced to return to a "real work week."

Whatever that is. Used to be 60-80 hours in the US, just a few decades back.

Hahahahahaha.

Yes, tell yourself that the survey is the problem, because obviously the world LOVES Trump.

He's such a competent leader who deserves all the respect and admiration in the world, and never acts like a 6 year old child ever.

Really, I worked a few decades back. I also remember my parents generation working even a few decades back from that. You're talking nearly a 100-years ago. Which is funny since most things liberals complain about haven't happened in a hundred years or so, but they have to complain about something. Why don't you come into the present time? It really is nicer now. I admit that 100-years ago things weren't as good for non-white, non-males. But, you'd be surprised how things have changed.

So did I, usually 3+ jobs at a time. It's how I built my capital.

On the other hand, I'm no longer impressed by long hours -- productivity is far more important. And balance.

The 40-hour work week started in October 1940. So "nearly 100 years" is almost 79 years.

I've no idea what the rest of your rant is about.

Let's see, twenty years per generation, 79 years, so four generations. I think my depiction stands. Besides, the point is whiny Europeans with their hands out to the U.S. So, perhaps you'll comment on that instead of deflect the point.




Musicmystery -> RE: Trump causes 'major' shift in global view of US (6/27/2017 7:52:15 AM)

I don't even understand why you're on about this or for what purpose.

So you have fun, and I'll go line up more business.

Poll shows U.S. tumbling in worlds regard under Trump That was the Post's take on it.

The reason he didn't score lower was because civilised humanity is unaware of sheer lie volume, every blundering buffoon move, etc etc

Strange is the mindset of the GOP - This is not rational.

If that was my beloved Trout Face Nicola she wouldn't, nor her party, get my vote, support etc
Hows the DUP Tory scum bag team looking anyway you Englishshire jackals hmm wait Scotlandshire jackals too as they got 25% of the Scottish loon vote - not quite the 43% of the English vote, but still up from their usual 15-20% up here. Wonder how Ruth Davidson feels about the DUP. She is the leader of the Scottish (in part by default as the only achieved 1 MP last election in Haggisland) Tory Scumbag Party, and a lesbian too boot who is marrying her partner, I think.

The only thing that surprised me about the international survey is that "55 percent also described him as a "strong leader"".. WTF???

anyone that has to lie constantly, flip flop all the time, say the most vile untrue things about other people, threaten people/countries, tweet his hate daily, thin-skinned, etc is not a strong leader.. imo those are traits & habits very weak leaders have..

As far as his ratings at home go, there will be a bad recession in the next year or two and we will see how Americans feel about him then.. apparently 2/3rds of Americans will be badly hurt in the next one.. the rich dont have to worry tho, they will get bailed out (again)... he might get booted out in 4 years but I think its more likely he will just keep BSing his way to 2 terms..

Other countries leaders have figured out Trump is very weak, as this article points out.. Trump has been tested and he has failed to show any spine.. I thought George Bush was the worst America could do, I was so wrong and its another 7-1/2 long years to find out just how badly this is gonna turn out..

Strong can also = dangerous. But I really dont know what they were thinking. Could he be perceived as strong for trying to carry out his core mandate eg wall, ACA, travel ban - yes. Was Hitler seen as a strong leader?

To me Trump just seems to listen to those whispering in his ear - and who is that? I thinks its Bannon? and bannon cascades down his choices and picks. To me that makes him(Trump) weak and foolish.

You could argue that Bannon and his Team are running the country directly advising a child like mind out of his depth.

Thats just not a good place to be.

Well then when China comes to take your country you can go fuck yourself.

How does that grab you ?

T^T

China has been here as a major investor since Reagan turned the largest creditor nation in the world into the largest debtor nation in the world, with 25% of its assets owned overseas, in just 8 years.

But now you don't have to worry about China coming here -- we're sending jobs there!




BoscoX -> RE: Trump causes 'major' shift in global view of US (6/28/2017 5:33:30 AM)


Put another way, a recent poll by the Pew Research Center found that America's enemies prefer Barack Obama over Donald Trump.




Musicmystery -> RE: Trump causes 'major' shift in global view of US (6/28/2017 5:43:17 AM)

Um...no. Here's the Pew Research study from 2 days ago:


June 26, 2017
U.S. Image Suffers as Publics Around World Question Trump’s Leadership

Although he has only been in office a few months, Donald Trump’s presidency has had a major impact on how the world sees the United States. Trump and many of his key policies are broadly unpopular around the globe, and ratings for the U.S. have declined steeply in many nations. According to a new Pew Research Center survey spanning 37 nations, a median of just 22% has confidence in Trump to do the right thing when it comes to international affairs. This stands in contrast to the final years of Barack Obama’s presidency, when a median of 64% expressed confidence in Trump’s predecessor to direct America’s role in the world.

The sharp decline in how much global publics trust the U.S. president on the world stage is especially pronounced among some of America’s closest allies in Europe and Asia, as well as neighboring Mexico and Canada. Across the 37 nations polled, Trump gets higher marks than Obama in only two countries: Russia and Israel.

In countries where confidence in the U.S. president fell most, America’s overall image has also tended to suffer more. In the closing years of the Obama presidency, a median of 64% had a positive view of the U.S. Today, just 49% are favorably inclined toward America. Again, some of the steepest declines in U.S. image are found among long-standing allies.

Since 2002, when Pew Research Center first asked about America’s image abroad, favorable opinion of the U.S. has frequently tracked with confidence in the country’s president. Prior to this spring, one of the biggest shifts in attitudes toward the U.S. occurred with the change from George W. Bush’s administration to Obama’s. At that time, positive views of the U.S. climbed in Europe and other regions, as did trust in how the new president would handle world affairs.

Even though the 2017 shift in views of the U.S. and its president is in the opposite direction compared with eight years ago, publics on balance are not necessarily convinced that this will affect bilateral relations with the U.S. The prevailing view among the 37 countries surveyed is that their country’s relationship with the U.S. will be unchanged over the next few years. Among those who do anticipate a change, however, more predict relations will worsen, rather than improve.

Confidence in President Trump is influenced by reactions to both his policies and his character. With regard to the former, some of his signature policy initiatives are widely opposed around the globe.

His plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, for example, is opposed by a median of 76% across the 37 countries surveyed. Opposition is especially intense in Mexico, where more than nine-in-ten (94%) oppose the U.S. government erecting a wall.

Similar levels of global opposition greet Trump’s policy stances on withdrawing from international trade agreements and climate change accords. And most across the nations surveyed also disapprove of the new administration’s efforts to restrict entry into the U.S. by people from certain Muslim-majority nations.

Trump’s intention to back away from the nuclear weapons agreement with Iran meets less opposition than his other policy initiatives, but even here publics around the world disapprove of such an action by a wide margin.

Trump’s character is also a factor in how he is viewed abroad. In the eyes of most people surveyed around the world, the White House’s new occupant is arrogant, intolerant and even dangerous. Among the positive characteristics tested, his highest rating is for being a strong leader. Fewer believe he is charismatic, well-qualified or cares about ordinary people.

While the new U.S. president is viewed with doubt and apprehension in many countries, America’s overall image benefits from a substantial reservoir of goodwill. The American people, for instance, continue to be well-regarded – across the 37 nations polled, a median of 58% say they have a favorable opinion of Americans. U.S. popular culture, likewise, has maintained appeal abroad, and many people overseas still believe Washington respects the personal freedoms of its people.

These are among the major findings from a new Pew Research Center survey conducted among 40,448 respondents in 37 countries outside the U.S. from Feb. 16 to May 8, 2017.

The drop in favorability ratings for the United States is widespread. The share of the public with a positive view of the U.S. has plummeted in a diverse set of countries from Latin America, North America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Favorability ratings have only increased in Russia and Vietnam.
Changing views of U.S. presidents over past decade and a half

As Pew Research Center’s global surveys from George W. Bush’s presidency illustrated, many of Bush’s key foreign policies were unpopular, and by the time he left office Bush was viewed negatively in most of the countries we polled. His successor, Obama, generally received more positive ratings throughout his White House tenure.

Today, in many countries, ratings for President Trump look very similar to those for Bush at the end of his term. This pattern is especially clear in Western Europe. In the UK, France, Germany and Spain, the low levels of confidence in Trump are very similar to the poor ratings for Bush in 2008.
