Well, let's see...
Do I care what H. Dean thinks or says? No!
Do I care what the rest of the world thinks of us or our President? No!
Do I like trump? NO!
Do I like what trump has done? Yes, some of it.
Do I think trump is better than any other candidate would have been? Yes.
Do I regret my vote? No.
Is trump MY President? Yes, just as any other election winner would be, whether I liked them or not.
So based on those overseas chiming in their opinion the lowdown is Europe loves us when we protect them with our big military and when we share wealth (to them) from our greedy hands but then behind the back they say we are fools and have only a large military and lots of money and greed as values that define America?
well ok then. Maybe the French president was right, start a European combined military. BTW you can have the UN headquarters also...take it please.
Is this what Trump voters have to hang their hat on, now?
Not at all, as many people here in this country cannot give a darn whether people in other countries like or dislike our presidents.
Frankly, I'd feel the same way if they didn't like Obama, even if I agreed with their view on a particular policy position. We are not part of the globalist cabal, thus whatever collective socialist government they may want to have, has no bearing on whom we choose as our leader.

That is another reason for some countries vitriol against Trump, because he is telling other countries (some very wealthy), no more free ride at our expense.
NATO is but one example.

Good, when will he tell Israel to find another sugar daddy? At over 3 billion a year Israel is a very expensive semi-ally.
And we should care what they think why Mr Dean? Imagine if they said Howard Dean should be president, should we automatically make it so then?
Overseas ?? Hell, a lot of us HERE don't consider him a legitimate President ! If you like reality shows, then I guess that would make it better, but some of us take that job a lot more seriously.

You misunderstand. I was mocking the idea that people overseas didn't have access to - what was it - "balanced/fair" news? Because frankly, European journalism and media is considerably happier about speaking truth to power than US media. Particularly a certain station that claims to be fair and balanced.
European leaders are a bunch of misfits struggling to maintain their power. Who cares?
