Here's the thing about that... The World does not have Americas interests as a priority. The World would love the US to have a weak, ineffectual leader. America should seriously consider why The World is so smitten.
>>The World does not have Americas interests as a priority.
No we do. We do have your interests as a priority. Please don't make a mess of the world economy. Be happy and let us be too.
>>The World would love the US to have a weak, ineffectual leader.
Exact opposite, we desire somebody who is strong. Strong enough not to go to wars, every time your nation got bored.
>>America should seriously consider why The World is so smitten.
Two wars, their national infrastructure smashed to dust. The whole world economy screwed. Sanctions of whatever country refuses to be your yes men. This pattern repeated over decades. How do you expect all those people to react. Honor and welcome you with garlands and request you to destroy more of their future?
So either the rest of the world is badly mis-informed about America, or it tells you something significant about the state of American politics right now... I know what I think. Either way, it's interesting.
