America destroyed their soft power in less than two years and turned the country into the biggest bootlickers in US history.

Oh that started in 2016. Every single individual that voted for Trump in all three elections he participated in, is responsible for this. Same goes for anyone who didn't vote, and those that voted for people supporting Trump in any local, state and federal election.

It started in 2016, but I think most of the world was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt after kicking him out in 2020. 2024 was far more damaging.

The disdain towards the country that had 4 years of seeing what a lying, thieving moron this man is, and giving him a chance to have another go is orders of magnitude more severe than how we judged you the first time around. 

2016 was almost just funny. 2024 shows that the USA is not a country that Europe should be too reliant upon.
