It works both ways.

I seriously doubt any of our presidents ever said in private the extremely rude, crude and disrespectful things Trump has said and tweeted (equal to putting out statements, whether the dumb-dumb realizes it or not).
Everything Trump has said about other countries is true, and now their feelings are hurt.

Too bad.

I'm only hoping Americans now qualify for political refugee status in western Europe.
The last thing Europe is going to accept is whining libs from the U.S.

So the Germans are more upset by Trump than by Merkel single-handedly destroying their country by admitting one million unvetted refugees, including terrorists.

If that's true, then there is no reason why Americans should care what dumb-dumbs abroad think of them.

Only in Trumpworld would they think so.

Trump is not making us safer. By undermining our allies he is making us less safe. Time for Trumpists to wake up.
Trump isn't undermining our allies. That's what Obama did.

Trump is telling them to pull their own weight -- which they should. It's long overdue.

Trump is a multi-billionaire who is seventy years old.

But you think he's trying to fatten his wallet by being president.

D'oh!

You're conning yourself. Trump isn't conning you or anyone else.

If the world hates ISIS, it's not showing much evidence of that "hate".

Agreed.

The professional politicians in other parts of the world are sad that we won't send them hundreds of Billions of dollars (with no strings attached) for a one sided arrangement for so-called climate change initiatives (that won't do a thing & won't help us at all).

They're feelings are hurt that we are leveling the BS trade agreements from the past.

They're sad that we won't follow their suicidal tendencies by taking as many Islamic nut jobs into our country as they are taking into theirs.

They're disappointed that they're having to now deal with successful businessmen in the US, as opposed to lifelong political p*ssys like themselves.

Thank Goodness there are still some countries that have it together and there are a few leaders who have grown a pair recently. (The Brits, Poland, Hungary, Japan, Korea, Australia & others) There will be others in the years ahead as the current Socialist leaders are tossed out and slowly but surely they'll be replaced with Capitalists.

Amazingly enough one cannot blame everything on one man just because one cannot accept the fact that
President Trump is President Trump.


While this is true Trump got elected because he didn't act like a politician and now we're paying for it.
He's not helping our image he's making it worse, I wasn't a fan of Obama either but at least we were more respected then we are now.

You can go that route if you wish but I am mostly referring to libs, mass media, and a few other countries out there that spew the hate. We're going the right direction.

A half Million killed in Syria, a new war breaking out in Iraq and ISIS.
Of course Obama was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize 11 whole days after he was sworn into office.

This. Most posters don't seem to understand that we are a part of the global community. Yes, a community. The world does not revolve around us. Sure, we're powerful, but if Trump keeps acting like a jerk, and undoubtedly he will, the rest of the world will withdraw their support. We aren't infallible and we aren't invincible. The fact that the only country that likes us is Russia speaks volumes. And for those who assume Trump represents Americans, you are sadly mistaken. Trump represents himself. He has used his power in office to get even richer than he was before.

Even the Nobel Prize is now an affirmative action program.

He does not need more money.....he successfully built up a family business and is not in this for the money. He connected with the forgotten people during his campaign. He heard what they had to say. Hilliary did not besides all her other baggage that went along with her campaign. He is now our President......not Hilliary.

You're conning yourself. Trump isn't conning you or anyone else.


The U.S can't even pull her own wait so telling other to pull their is the pot calling the kettle black. Besides they have been pulling their weight LONG before the U.S was a thought.


Do you REALLY believe that Trump for to where he is today by being honest?


He's greased more then a few palms to get to where he is. He IS a can man just like my dad was I know this from experience. You stay rich by helping others like yourself not by helping those who can't help you.


Embarrassing the U.S is not helping anyone but himself he should of never been elected president.
