    The public as a whole disapproves of Trump and his ilk, not of the United States as a whole. As you’ll note, that article is dated just before the handover of power to Biden.

      Things have only gotten worse under Biden. People around the world are waking up to the fact that the entire US system is broken and it doesn’t matter which stooge is at the steering wheel of it.

        Regardless, South Koreans view the US and Biden much more positively than Trump.

            70% currently are confident in Biden.

            17% were confident in Trump in 2020 during his last term.

              That survey is taken before the war. That was before the western economic bloc started imploding and US started screwing Korea over. CHIPS act will cut Korea from their biggest chip market, while domestic EV subsidies cut Korea out of EV market in US. Pretty sure that isn’t making Biden popular I’m Korea right now.

                Your call for a citation was warranted, but I’m going to have to make the same call here.

                  There aren’t more recent polls in Korea that I’ve seen regarding views on Biden, so we’ll have to wait for that data. As I said, I can’t imagine the two actions above will have a positive impact.
