The people's democratic Republic of America really infuses confidence in the rest of the world. 84% of Swedes asked about the US and your glorious leader expects the best and most beautiful leader in the world to screw up everything in a really big and most beautiful way. Xi Jiping inspire about the same amount, 16% have any kind of positive expectations there and Trump's best buddy Putin don't even reach the amount of confidence that can be rounded up to a measly 1%. Who cares what the rest of the world thinks about the great leader an company? Well Musk are probably starting to feel the sting, sales of EV vehicles are up 26% this year, sales of tesla is this far down 56% and sinking. Saab is working to eliminate the us built engine in Gripen and everyone who has bought F35 are starting their own production of spares and support. Way to go. Proud Spud?
