Anyone care to enlighten me on this article from the New York Times or is it just political manoeuvres?
I think it's been a long time since the rest of the world looked towards the US for leadership. Anyone care to enlighten me on this article from the New York Times or is it just political manoeuvres?
When I was young, America was seen as the good guy. The one to look up to.
That is certainly not the case anymore. They have lost the respect of the world in recent times.

Hi Molly,When I was young, America was seen as the good guy. The one to look up to.

I was interested that the article speaks of concerns re Covid 19 and the lack of leadership regarding this. As you well know on here there is a great divide between Americans who are either anti or pro Trump ,so I was curious to get a feel of how others have perceived this crisis and how it has been dealt with for all concerned.

Certainly no country is looking towards the leadership there for guidance.I was interested that the article speaks of concerns re Covid 19 and the lack of leadership regarding this.

There are much better countries to looking towards.
Taiwan and South Korea spring to mind.

The new york times is now and probably always will be initially far left haters of the center and anyone leaning to the right and so it is this article. Truth is, regarding the USA and Covid19, I believe we all suffer here now because our legislators couldn't come together years ago to enable preparedness in the usa for this kind of thing.

As far as the USA losing respect, a lot of us today living here don’t care. We’ve been used and laughed at by our allies for too long. We should pull all American military from most countries unwilling to pay for their own defense or reciprocate in some way. We’ve seen enough of our brainwashed women and men sacrifice themselves for people in Europe who care only about themselves. Rant over.

Thanks for your input Galrads. I did wonder if this was a media liberal elitist publication. I don't think any country was prepared for this pandemic to be honest.

I'll refrain from comment on the US being used and abused by Europe, those are your personal thoughts, whereas I tend to think that we should all support each other in times of need.

germanspitz: I was asking Americans for their opinion on this publication in relation to the American people.
I am ,and always have been ,fully aware of how this country has been let down by false promises but that is not up for discussion on this thread.
