This kind of just says it all. America, once the bastion of democratic principles and the Leader of the Free World ™ has fallen so far down the rabbit hole under Trump that European officials are literally aghast at what is happening over here. This, after four years of Trump shitting all over our Western allies, tearing up all our international agreements, promoting “America First” foreign policy that leaves everyone else out in the cold, and cozying up to the world’s worst dictators.

“We don’t want anything to do with your fucked-up election. Keep us out of it, please,” said one European official.
One official, a foreign policy adviser to an EU president, likened this year’s US election to some of the wilder elections on their continent’s fringes — but with significantly bigger and possibly scarier consequences.
“It’s Eastern Europe plus that small nuclear suitcase that Trump has,” said the official, who agreed to be interviewed on the condition of anonymity to speak freely on sensitive matters.
America, once the “Shining City on the Hill” has become the world’s biggest shithole under Trump. And four more years of this will ABSOLUTELY destroy this country beyond repair.
While none of the officials went so far as to express their support for former vice president Joe Biden, four suggested and one stated explicitly that a victory for the Democratic challenger would be Europe’s preferred outcome.
Things wouldn’t go back to normal necessarily or immediately, but with Biden as the victor, said the adviser to an EU president, “there would be an adult in the room that you can talk to, and when he promises something there’s a good level of expectation that he’s going to deliver…which just hasn’t been the case in the last four years.”
You can guarantee that the entire world will be watching what happens tomorrow night. However, no matter the outcome, it’s going to take years to repair our international reputation, thanks to that Mango Mussolini and his Horde of Orcs.
