I haven't seen Americans behaving badly in all my travels. I know this is anecdotal evidence, but all evidence that says Americans are bad travelers, is also anecdotal.

American travelers are becoming more worldly. They are far from being the worst travelers, and often get a bad rap.

I am not talking about Pandemic America. What's happening in America right now is irrelevant, and I'd argue that foreigners might hold a more critical view of Americans, given the leadership(or lack thereof) that Americans have chosen.

I mean I haven't seen any changes in my fellow Americans. IF ANYTHING, since Trump got elected, I think the behavior of Americans has gotten WORSE! HOWEVER, it seems that ALL THE SUDDEN us Americans for some odd reason are no longer perceived as BAD abroad! WHY is that? It CAN'T be because our behavior just ALL THE SUDDEN MAGICALLY changed.

Trump's election change how people view America, but not really how they view Americans. Most people deal with people on an individual basis.

Nothing has changed. No Americans are traveling right now, are they?

Heck, the country I am in has ZERO international flights, so we aren't expecting any Americans in the near future. USA still has international flights.

Trump's election change how people view America.

Gosh you democrats sound like broken records when it comes to Republican Presidents.

"Nixon's election changed how people view America(willing to make America China's bitch, plus Watergate)."

"Reagan's election changed how people view America(willing to vote for Hollywood Actors)."

"Bush's election changed how people view America(willing to vote for that corrupt dude who rode on the Hollywood Actor's coattails )".

"Bush's election changed how people view America, Again (willing to vote for Coattails guy's Chimpanzee-like son and put up with his Saddam-revenge vendetta quest)"

@colliric I am not a Democrat, any more than you are a Republican. You are engaging in distraction.

Are facts a problem with you?

You might say "Trump hit new lows worse than Bush" or "he's gone even lower since 2017" but that still looks like a richochet return to Republican Party President normal.
