I'd hope that was the case but so many far smaller things do. You make a good point though.

Thanks. I don't know where you're from, but in America people know the guy is a bullshitter and basically a sleazy used-cars salesman. They care about his policies and the results he gets that previous establishment, polished politicians didn't get done.

The UK. Many of my American friends and myself see his Presidency as an erosion of American values. His nationalist and I'm afraid xenophobic attitudes are anathema. He's like subsidence under a house. His achievements were inheriting an upward moving economy and bear market.

Well in the UK, reading your media outlets, you never get an accurate depiction of America and it's politics. As to nationalism versus globalism it's a balance in our transformed world. And at this moment globalism has gutted our country.

I read and watch much American output. I also watch as much raw output as possible untainted by spin or editorialising. My view on the current administration is based on that. My conclusion is that your current president is a detriment to your country internally and externally.

Right now America has real problems. For young people, for people who need health care, etc. Isolationism is reasonable because the US has really screwed up in the Middle East and other places. Perhaps other countries should take the lead.

He isn't looking to free up wealth by withdrawing from international institutions so he can help the poor and sick though. He is still interfering in the middle east and ripping support away rather than slowly withdrawing. His focus is Trump not America.

I agree totally. But sometimes in looking out for himself he also looks out for American interests. He does have ideas and policy interests. He ran on getting out of the Middle East and foreign involvements. The reasons he is still there are based on his advisory council.
