I’m assuming you’re talking about Biden, and no, not really. Still considered a superpower.

Up until the second Trump presidency, most of us outside the USA had basically the same opinion as we had before. Pretty messed up politics , but strong economy and strong military.

The first minor dip was with Trumps first presidency. But shit went downhill fast with his second, unfettered reign when MAGA took total control over the Republican Party.

Now it is 110% clear that the American Dream is dead and buried, except for the well connected wealthy, and your military was state of the art, two decades ago.

The 21st century belongs to China and Europe.

I don't know, I don't really buy that this all went downhill with Trump. It's easy to say that about someone you don't like and fail to overlook all the signs with someone you like.

I didn’t have a problem with Trump during his first term.

It was clear he was unfit to be a president, but he was mostly golfing.

I mean, I have no proof what his schedule is actually like. Media, motivated interests, Political parties (including his own), even you and I will have no problem making up and believing gullibly that something we heard is true when in fact in reality it isn't.

We call this confirmation bias.

I doubt any president would really be able to golf for much of his time. Though you can believe what you'd like. I would love to find evidence for this belief though, where do I Look?
