As of the end of May, China had an 8.8 net favorability rating, compared to -1.5 for the U.S., according to favorability data for last month provided exclusively to Axios by Morning Consult. In January 2024, the U.S. rating was above 20 and China was in negative territory.

The------------- built that.

Qulle surprise.

In the US - China trade talks, China looks to be acting like the adult in the room, and Pres Trump looks to be acting like a child in their terrible-twos.

The US wasn't here 300 years ago, 500 years ago, 2000 years ago, 3000 years ago.

China's different.

@#4 ... China's different. ...

Yup.

China tends to take the long-term view.

If they took a short-term view, they'd allow Trump, Inc to build a Trump Tower in Beijing in return for Pres Trump lowering tariffs on goods imported from China.

The PRC wasn't here 100 years ago, 200 years ago, 300 years ago.

China is not the PRC.

Republicans want America's global reputation to be in the toilet.

China keeps a firm hand on the tiller.

Trump doesn't even know what a tiller is.

Chinese propaganda.

China inflicted the worst manmade disaster in history on itself, and it happened within the lifetime of some of the posters here.

FTA:

Zoom out: The U.S. had a largely positive reputation last year " but it dropped sharply after President Trump took office.

"Since January 2025, the overwhelming majority of countries simultaneously exhibit worsening views of the United States and improving views of China," McMann writes.

"Only in Russia have views of America meaningfully improved."

Congratulations MAGA morons. You did this.

America enjoyed an economic advantage from profiteering off of the World Wars.The rest of the world has rebuilt since and internationally we know you are always the first to profit and the last to fight.

Yeah, but we learned our lesson, too bad America elected Trump again. Americans never learn.

Has the world really forgiven China for Covid 19?

The United States is certainly not what it's living under now, one would think.

China has survived more self-inflicted damage than most. Still here. And came out better, probably.

We'll see what the US's bottom-up and top-down self-inflicted damage does.

Goes to Sitz also.

re: DBT2

We're certainly going through a period of heavy damage right now.

Doomer predictions never hold up.

DOGE went hunting for a trillion dollars and all they found out was that the systems of the US aren't particularly corrupt or victims of massive fraud. Congress spends too much, that's it.

Usa foreign policy is not innocent.
