Poll: Majority in US see relations with adversaries souring
yahoo ^ | 10/11/2022

A majority of U.S. adults expect America's relations with foreign adversaries like Russia and North Korea to grow more hostile, according to a new poll, a major shift in public opinion from four years ago under President Donald Trump.

Two years into the Biden administration, 60% of U.S. adults say relations with adversaries will get worse, up from 26% four years ago at the same point in the Trump administration, according to the poll from the Pearson Institute and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. Just 21% say relationships with allies will deteriorate, down from 46% then.

In general, 39% expect the country’s global standing to worsen, compared with 48% who said that in 2018. Crucially, the United States’ own sharply divided domestic politics influences views of the country’s standing abroad.

“Those results really, clearly show that it’s hyperpartisanship” affecting how confidently or bleakly, respectively, Democrats and Republicans see the U.S. standing abroad, said Sheila Kohanteb, a political scientist and executive director of the Global Forum at the Chicago-based Pearson Institute for the Study and Resolution of Global Conflicts.

Wasn’t too long ago President Trump stepped over the 38th parallel.

Some major cognitive dissonance is going on here. Americans think world relations will worsen under Biden compared to Trump, but America’s world standing will be better. Perhaps we can thank government schools for such great critical thinking. It even exists on FR with all the moron what want US involvement in Ukraine.

Joe has no clue where he’s at or what he is saying. His handlers are—and have been—running the show.

I wonder what gave people that idea. Couldn’t have anything to do with a totally incompetent “leader ship” puppet that we have in the White House now.

North Korea just changed its law in favor of using nuclear weapons if losing in any conventional conflict. That’s a consequence of leftist chickens over here squawking their fears all over the Net in response to nuclear mouthiness from Russians. Anti-defense whining feeds the pride and evil intentions of bully nations.

First there was Nasser, then there was Saddam, then there was Gaddafi.

Will MbS be the next Arab leader that the Anglo-Americans
love to hate?

Wasn’t it wonderful how they gave up their nuclear weapons and started in by giving us verifiable inventory lists, on-site inspections and then surrendering the warheads one by one to the IAEA, and also they ended their ballistic missile launches threatening Japan and ROK (and our 90,000 troops there) , and opened their prison camps and freed all of the Christians, and then on top of that came 100% clean on the young American kidnapped and killed by them from Ohio… Yeah we got a lot in return out of that stroll

As Tulsi Gabbard says, it is a cabal.

I think Nancy, Barack, Valerie and Chuck U run the cabal...
