US President Donald Trump’s unconventional approach to foreign policy has been shifting the global landscape, influencing public opinion in several countries. A recent survey showed that 27% of Republican voters now view Canada as “unfriendly” or an “enemy”, a significant increase from last year. Similarly, the perception of the European Union has also grown more negative, with 29% of Republicans considering them enemies.
This trend can be attributed to Trump’s polarizing rhetoric and policies, which have created a divide within his own party and beyond. The president’s ability to bend reality has become a political superpower, making it easier for him to shape public opinion on key issues.
As the world watches with interest, one thing is certain: Trump’s unconventional approach to foreign policy will continue to be a topic of debate and discussion in years to come.
