Nothing as changed and nothing will change unless people stop voting. By voting you're giving the State legitimacy.

By hook or by crook. Right? In this case just crooks---lots of them. It must all make you so puffed up and proud.

The world knows and will remember our vulnerability and decline that saddled us with such a crook for a president.

There is a difference between genuine, earned respect that Trump will never know or have. He is just a poke in the eye to those he and his base don't like. The rest of the world deals with him as minimally as they must while giving the side eye/stink eye befitting him. Sometimes when you win (especially crookedly as with Trump), you actually lose and keep on losing until you're gone.

Every President is a crook. The people who actually run the country wouldn't allow them to be (s)elected if they weren't.

“He has a tendency to fire off in all directions," Ablin said. “It’s hard to ever know what’s real."

Is this an indication of loss of credibility? Not only for Trump but for the US?
The best thing we could have done for this country would have been to ignore Trump at every turn, starting with his inauguration. Made him a non-issue. When someone is a narcissist, the worst thing that can be done is to feed the beast.

Nobody even pays attention to that big orange gasbag. He is a joke. Here and abroad.

The polite world leaders will play along with Commander Hairspray, but they do not respect him or seek any 'advice' he might have to give other than where to play golf.

They ignore him ... or they laugh mockingly at him ... or they shrewdly manipulate him.

Is this the same world that gave Obama the Nobel peace prize and cheered him before he did anything worthwhile in office?

That world?
