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.

This man is really disliked abroad.

Great news, it shows he's not giving our wealth away to the world like that idiot Obama.

Why do you think that's what it shows?

I used to get razzed by online gamers all the time about Obama. These were Europeans. Brits, Finns, some Spanish and frenchy's. They LOVED that Obama was President because they thought he'd weaken the US. They also laughed that we'd elect someone like him. I think they really just wanted to see America get knocked down a peg or two. Now they hated Bush 43 but that was more because they felt he'd continue to make America the leader of the free world.
If they don't like Trump, that's probably a good sign. We'd be getting fruit baskets and balloons from them if that she demon Hillary had been elected.

They're having to pay their fair share of NATO which they have skated from under Obama.

Spain's unemployment rate is 17.6% and the USA is 4.3%....who's doing better?

Disliked universally. By the majority of Americans as well as overseas.

And what kind of sign is it that most Americans don't like Trump?

Regan was also hated across Europe. They accused him of being an American cowboy who was going to start WW3.

Spanish people aren't driven to personal bankruptcy by healthcare costs. Who's doing better?

I don't think you know how NATO works. It's okay, Trump doesn't either.
