Trump is really showing the world that any kind of dependence on USA on any level is a liability. I wonder how long it will take for the US to rebuild the political goodwill he is burning.

What many Americans don't seem to understand is that the burning of political goodwill started long before Trump - he's just pouring gasoline on the dumpster fire that started with America's illegal invasion of Iraq in 2003 and has been festering ever since ..
We don't care. This is merely anti-American propaganda, and that has not changed. As I continue to say, the anti-American will become anti-EU in short order, with all the empty hate- and fearmongering. Obviously something EU or DE related instead of US like defense. Get the laughs in while you can, because the downsides of myopia are far and wide. Having to defend yourselves is going to be expensive. Which means eith…

The US has zero goodwill after almost a hundred years of ridiculous amounts of assistance. We're not getting any less goodwill by stopping. The people who consume anti-American propaganda will continue to do so. Cool story though.
I can assure you this flipped after yesterdays Rubio/musk stunt.

Poland after CIA helped overthrow russian occupation: highest US approval of all European nations, 91% positive with miniscule 3% negative in 2022 https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2022/06/22/international-... I can assure you this flipped after yesterdays Rubio/musk stunt.
On the other hand, the US will continue liking Poland as much as we always have, no matter how little (to nothing) that's done for us. As Americans, we understand friendship is usually a one way street.
Our Fair Weather Friends should make themselves known sooner rather than later. If their state television wants to dive into the anti-American propaganda, like many other EU countries and Canada do, we very well might reciprocate though.

What are you talking about? The sentiment towards USA has been positive, pretty much worldwide apart from the places you would expect (Russia, china, greater middle east, parts of the Balkans). In Europe it was pretty stellar until the Iraq war. Looking at sentiment towards the USA in Africa it is clear that there is quite a lot of goodwill.

What has Poland done for the US? Apart from leaking us their plans to turn the EU into a nuclear wasteland way back. No, spending on the Polish military is not "for the US". No, preventing the EU from becoming a nuclear wasteland is not "for the US". Those things are for Poland.

The world is tired of America's war machine. That's not propaganda, its a fact.
