I have a vague recollection, when I was much younger, about something related to the “Ugly American“.
“Ugly American is a pejorative term used to refer to perceptions of loud, arrogant, demeaning, thoughtless, ignorant, and ethnocentric behavior of American citizens mainly abroad, but also at home. Although the term is usually associated with or applied to travelers and tourists, it also applies to US corporate businesses in the international arena.”

It seems to me that people are busy with their daily lives and daily routine. Sometimes I wonder if they have their heads in the sand or are simply enjoying this idiotic, sophomoric and ridiculous spectacle currently happening in the political arena.
Seems to me that many have limited views. Some don’t even consider the effects caused outside the USA.

COMMENTS ON MY TIMELINE
It is possible … that America is becoming the laughing stock of the rest of the world with all this going on.
Not a good thought.
The GOP and Trump will try to dismiss this as ravings of a “foreigner” who doesn’t know anything about ‘Merica… but I think he’s got Trump, the GOP and what people around the world think … pegged
… not our finest moment ….

Unfortunately, we all have our fair share of them, Horty. It’s a shame when everyone gets tarred with the same brush. Trump has gotten up a few noses here in Scotland too.

Horty, you have my sympathy, certainly. More, though, you have my empathy. He and his type are worldwide. We have him here by another name. Dangerous buffoons. I try now not to see a nation and its people by who represents them on the public stage. I don’t want to imagine that others judge me and my ethics by David Cameron. I’m stuck with him till change is made possible through awareness. I hope the American people, the British, all people, begin to question more closely the characters of those who would profess to speak on their behalf. I will never judge you by the Trumps of this world. Rest assured, the world of blogging reveals the characters of the nations more truly than the purported representatives. There will be change. I have no doubt. Change for the better beginning with all those who speak. You are such a one. My faith in humanity’s spirit is every day restored in the pages and posts that let me see more of the minds and hearts of those I would, otherwise, never meet.
Keep the faith, keep doing what you are doing. It is not in vain. We speak across a divide narrowed by the knowledge of ordinary people with a free voice here. x

If we do not stop this madman, and he somehow gets elected, he will take the world to the brink, when he insults and abuses the Chinese and Russians like he does everyone else. They will not tolerate his insanity for one minute and it will be WW3.

I so agree!! This is not funny anymore. Should he be elected … I don’t know where I’d go …. he’s already mentioned to strip Puerto Ricans of their citizenship!! I empathized with the Mexicans when he started his crazy tirades but know it’s even closer to home!! 😦
Look …. it’s in Spanish though!

His astronomical rise to the top, makes Republicans look ridiculous.We should all be very afraid of what he is capable of doing.

Agree! You think the average American can see this? And go out to vote when the time comes? Do you think he has ulterior motives or just a need for the spotlight? How can this be happening if Americans are the best?

We do have a clearer view of Donald Trump here in New Zealand – I think we are amused by his antics.
