    What evil shit did he do for the world (specifically US allies) to hate the US?

    Before you answer, let me remind you that most people don’t care about anything that happens to anyone more than 100 km from them.

    Bombing Iraq and Afghanistan? Those are far away and there’s always a war in the middle east.

    Torturing people? Par for the course in America.

      So, you think that the world begins and ends with the invaders of Iraq and Afghanistan?

        I’d love to be proven wrong, but bombing weddings and torturing people doesn’t make people abandon the US. Tariffs on the other hand…

      So you want me to list evil stuff but exclude wars that killed hundreds of thousand civilians because you don’t care about those people and torturing humans because the USA does that too often to count?

      I think when you say “most people don’t care” you are still just referring to the USA population

        The question was about “the world abandoning the US”. What I think is irrelevant, look at the opinion polls in 2005 and 2025.
