US Standing in the World Collapses After Joe Biden’s Calamitous Afghanistan Withdrawal
The US standing in the world and with American allies collapsed last month following Joe Biden’s calamitous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Tippinsights.com reported:
The IBD/TIPP Standing In The World Index, a unique metric that measures Americans’ opinion on the country’s position as a world leader, declined 8.2 points or 16.1%, from 50.9 in August to 42.7 in September.
It is the second-largest monthly percentage drop in the last 20 years, trailing only the October 2017 drop of 20.1%, when the Las Vegas shooting killed 58 people and injured 500 more.
By points, it is the fourth-biggest drop over the past 20 years.
Multiple factors are behind the loss of confidence.
- Americans continue to suffer trauma as a result of the botched Afghanistan withdrawal.
