Several recent surveys have found more favorable views of the U.S. abroad since Biden took office. But will that goodwill last?

President Joe Biden’s approval ratings may be falling at home, but he’s still got plenty of love abroad.

Indeed, the report states that U.S. leadership’s approval rating increased “substantially” — by 10 percentage points or more — in 36 of the 46 countries and territories surveyed through the first half of 2021. What’s more, that 49% median approval rating is on par with the favorable ratings under Barack Obama’s first year in office in 2009.

And keep in mind that the new Gallup report surveyed global citizens through early August — before the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which saw the Taliban take over the U.S.-backed Afghan government, and spurred thousands of men, women and children to attempt to flee the country. The blowback sunk Biden’s approval rating among Americans, and the Gallup report noted that global approval ratings could also change over the next few months.

Still, the authors don’t think the overall approval ratings for Biden’s first year in office will drop as low as his predecessor’s, because of the other gains that he made with allies across the globe since taking office. Early multilateral moves such as bringing the U.S. back into the World Health Organization and the Paris climate agreement, which the Trump administration had pulled out of, were viewed favorably by many U.S. allies.

Of course, this president has us back to being bent over by our “allies”.

I’d like to see those surveys 🤔

Nothing can be lower than 45.

Basically, all he has to do is not leave our loyal allies out of the loop as he did with some aspects of the Afghanistan exit, or The French on the Australian nuclear submarine deal. Other than that, simply don't be an a-hole like the TFG was to our NATO allies.
