Why? Obama got on his hands and knees and sold this country out to the rest of the world. Just out of curiosity reed067, what good did that do America?
We're certainly not the leader of the free world anymore. If we're going to be isolationists now..
We are not isolationists. We are economic nationalists, which means putting America's interests and welfare FIRST before any other country. There can't be a first without a second, third, etc. As Trump said in his wonderful UN speech several months ago, which you can watch on the White House youtube channel, every country should put their own interests first. That is the job of a leader, a role which he is modeling for the world.
Link to an interesting article in Forbes. There are a number of surveys that gauge the “brands” or perceptions that people around the world view other countries. Historically , the United States is usually #1 in these surveys.
In 2016, as usual, we ranked #1.
In 2017, we fell to #6
1. Germany
2. France
3. United Kingdom
4. Canada
5. Japan 6. United States
I expect it to go much lower.
Our nation has passed it's zenith.
The election of a notorious bigot/con man who has been involved in 4,000 lawsuits, scammed working class and retirees with his fake school, denies climate science, goes on twitter rants like a juvenile, cheats his contractors, abandons our allies, routinely feasts on Big Macs and can't even travel 700 yards without a golf cart has made people the world over realize that we are no longer a people of high ideals, personal standards and firm moral character.
...Obama had eight years and he did not do for the minorities what Trump has accomplished in one year...
Your comment reminds me of when Republicans claim that the Democrats have brainwash minorities so now they can't think for themselves.
Try asking minorities if they're thankful for everything the racist in the WH and his supporters have done last year. But of course it doesn't really matter what most minorities feel or want when conservatives know in their hearts that 'tough love' is what they really need.

This is true, but which group's racism is based on the resentment of being treated like s___ by most every organization for decades? What's the effect of black racism compared to white racism? Minorities are not the ones who do most of the hiring or are in a position where their racism would have much, if any effect...
