It is pretty well know that abroad most people laugh at us for electing such a man. This is not news. The base will never waiver, that's clear, but the rest of the world sees what is obvious. That is why history will not be kind to Donald Trump.
I'm on my way back from my vacation to Barcelona. It's notable how many people talked to me about Trump. I never initiated these discussions. (Who would??!) But, when people found out I'm American, they frequently expressed their sorrow for our "crazy" "idiot" president. I made it as clear as I possibly could that the majority of Americans despise him. He does not represent the best of this country.
A recent credible poll, if there is such a thing, showed 90 something % are happy with their vote for trump.
It was hidden within a poll cherry picked to show people did not like trump's behavior.
Euro countries governments roll over for Trump, they need him more than he does them.
The Euro people dislike each other.
Ask a Walloon what they think of northern Belgium or a french swiss about a german swiss.
I live in a county in Nj where, after an election when a democrat wins, you cannot find anyone who voted for that candidate.
Hope EU knows that the mainstream media over here is a democrat propaganda machine who carrys the hijacked democrat's hate and fear mongering campaign to the extreme. EU has always looked down on America, though strangely enough they can't wait to move here.
LMAO re the bolded (tried to rep you, but got the spread the rep message). If you had not identified the state and had asked us to guess, my first guess would have been NJ.
I wouldn't want to live in NJ, but I do enjoy visiting.
Two questions that I ask people (mid conversation) when visiting, when say the other person starts the conversation while waiting in a line (or some similar situation), and if the conversation turns to driving. I can't remember any specific answers I've heard to these two questions (but I remember responders making me laugh, or at least chuckle) :
1. How do you feel about jug handles ?
2. How do you feel about not being able to pump your own gas ?

I didn't vote for either one of them, but do you think 'history will be kind to Hillary' ?
It will be a different type of judgement, given that she lost, but 'history will still judge' Hillary.

This man is really disliked abroad.
I agree.
Not admired, not respected for his office, and I haven't met anyone neutral on the subject. It seems like everyone wants to talk about it with me, they bring it up, I don't. I get embarrassed.
This is different from what I have been accustomed to.

That's generally true for people living in echo chambers.
