From an outside perspective Trump was a shit show.
I don’t really care about your internal politics, but what I can say is that he had a massive impact on America’s credibility in the world. If you can just leave and rejoin the Paris climate agreement or unilaterally end the Iran nuclear oversight program, why should anyone really trust you on anything?
Joe Biden did a lot to repair this loss in trust, but it’s hard work and will take longer than one presidential period. Much longer than it took to damage your credibility in the world.
What’s being referenced is that the symbol of Trump’s party is an elephant. They’re the ones who basically set all this up. The other party holds to treaties they don’t like and such
You speak to one that emigrated as a result of what Trump did to America, so I have no quarrel with you about that. I am just amused by the German version with elephants in China shops since the Republican icon is an elephant.
I (an American) was thinking a similar thing. What’s the point of treaties and agreements if all it takes is one asshole President to say “nah, we’re not doing that”?
In German it’s the elephant who can’t peacefully exist in a china shop lol

More apropos in America, eh?

Thanks. I know that in theory, but didn’t make the connection.
Makes a lot of sense in that sketch.

Ah, makes sense. I didn’t make that connection even though I am aware of the donkey and elephant symbolism.
Some find me unnecessarily oblique, don’t worry about it

I don’t think anyone ever trusted the US with anything,with or without Trump. However the US are unavoidable, so we have to work with them.
Macht den Witz eigentlich sogar noch besser.
