Only in America: US image plummets as most countries say it has handled COVID-19 poorly

Since US President Donald Trump rose to power, the land of the free and the home of the brave has been taking a bit of a hit regarding its global reputation.

And the country’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis seems to only have accelerated this.

A survey from the Pew Research Center has illustrated a decline in America’s reputation, particularly among many key allies and partners.

Just 41% of people in the UK feel favourably about the US and this is ever lower in France (31%).

Germans give the US particularly low marks (26%), while the most negative assessment comes from Belgium where only 9% of respondents said they were confident the US was doing the right thing.

The numbers don’t lie!

The only problem is, they’re not the ones doing the voting in the US.
