Global approval of the United States has rebounded under Biden, survey finds

Source: Washington Post/MSN

President Biden has promised the world that "America is back."

Claire Parker 1 hr ago

As he takes his first trip abroad as president, a Pew Research Center global survey released Thursday shows that many in advanced economies believe it.

Trust in the U.S. president fell to historic lows in most countries surveyed during Donald Trump's presidency, according to Pew.

Under Biden, it has soared. In the 12 countries surveyed both this year and last, a median of 75 percent of respondents expressed confidence in Biden to "do the right thing regarding world affairs," Pew found, compared with 17 percent for Trump last year. Sixty-two percent of respondents now have a favorable view of the United States vs. 34 percent at the end of Trump's presidency.

"The election of Joe Biden as president has led to a dramatic shift in America's international image," the Pew report reads.

Much of the world has faith in the US under Democratic leadership and not so much faith under Republican leadership. That’s faith is important to our future because who wants to do business or form alliances to tackle global issues with leaders who lie and are not trustworthy.

A competent authoritarian with the support of one of the major parties and some "news" outlets could be a real danger. If Trump had just taken the virus seriously and acted, he would have been re-elected.
