In three weeks, Donald Trump has imploded whatever positive image the United States might have had internationally.

You don't understand? For a large part of the world it really makes no difference if it's D or R ordering invasions, regime change, cripling sanctions, drone strikes etc...

Imperialist wars to steal resources, unconditional support for israeli genocide, tax cuts and bail outs for the rich, less regulations for banks, oligarchs and multinationals. Those things are understood to be a bipartisan concensus since forever. Seen that the vast majority of Americans also vote for this since forever I really don't care.
