U.S. Ranks Low Among World's Most Reputable Countries

I am stunned by how many still support this creep in the White House! An infectious disease, Trumpism, has infected some of the US. I hope it can be cured, trends look promising?

America's image has taken a hit in the Donald Trump era, and 33 countries are currently viewed as more reputable nations, according to the 2018 ranking from the aptly named Reputation Institute.

The institute's annual ranking assesses ethics and perception of corruption across the 55 largest countries by gross domestic product, and surveyed more than 58,000 people from France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Japan, the United States, Canada and Russia between March and April 2018.

Such a finding is the latest in a series of global findings that cast a shadow over America's standing among the world's top nations. In the 2018 U.S. News Best Countries rankings, the U.S. fell from No. 7 Best Country to No. 8. The drop came on the heels of other global polls that found perceptions of the U.S. have diminished – a trend tied in part to Trump.
