“Global views of the United States worsened last year as President Donald Trump’s second term began, though most people still had a more positive opinion of the U.S. than China. This year, that is no longer the case.“
“Views of China have improved in recent years while opinions of the U.S.have worsened, to the point where China is now seen more positively than the U.S. in most of 36 countries surveyed.“
“During the first two years of Trump’s second term, ratings of the U.S. president worsened significantly. While many people still lack confidence in Xi, positive views of him have become more widespread, and more overall now say they have confidence in Xi than in Trump.“
“Few now say that the U.S. and Chinese governments respect the personal freedoms of their people across the 36 countries surveyed this year. This is especially true in Europe and Latin America. In Mexico, for example, around a third (35%) say the Chinese government respects its people’s personal freedoms, while 20% say the same about the U.S. government.”

And to think just a few years ago the US was the standard, the nation in the world most admired and respected, and now, thanks to Trump, we are thought of less than China’s autocracy.
