Basically everywhere in Europe, where we still have democracy, even if more and more shaky these days, because we don't get our act together with regard to the war in Ukraine.

Then Ukraine itself of course.

I think no one wants to have to deal with a deranged dude, who calls NK dictator a "great guy". Surely people in South America don't like his hate speeches and outlandish ideas about them paying for any kind of wall either.

In general people in many countries take statements like wanting to be a dictator "only on the first day" as very serious indications of some guy's mental health and for what they will have to deal with in the near future. Generally people are not a big fan of having to deal with authoritarian figures, who could impact their country's economy tomorrow, by doubling down on some idiotic tariffs policy or some other crap that comes his mind.

> Basically everywhere in Europe

Ohhhhhh, the other half of the Global North? I don't consider that representative of "around the world". Europe's population is a minority (reference the Valeriepieris Circle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valeriepieris_circle) , and it doesn't hold a monopoly on functioning democracies either.

But....have you been there, and asked them? Or have you just been to Europe? I've never been to South America, and only know a handful of Mexicans, Brazilians, Argentinians, and Colombians....not enough to say that I can speak for their politics.

I think authoritarians are more popular, globally, than you realize. I know Filipinos who spoke highly of Duterte because his crackdown really cleaned up crime in Manila, as one anecdote. Trump's tariff policy will probably not work out well for the overall quality of life in America, agreed on that point though.

Brazilian here. Our politics can be summed up as "socialist president backed by totalitarian supreme court". Trump's victory gave me hope. The socialists are already complaining about the upcoming "hard times". Anything he does that pisses off brazilian authorities is a win in my book.

I once watched Trump give a speech about how the USA was losing Brazil. Time proved him right. Brazil is now very close to China and Russia, they're even trying to replace the USD with their own currency. Maybe he'll care enough to change that.

Lots of people here who do.

Welcome to South America.

Every single day, I wake up and I see news of some government official making a comically stupid decision that negatively impacts the entire economy, my future ability to make money and also the worth of the money I've already made. Elected socialists who want to crush us with taxes. Unelected judges with god complexes. You name it, we've got it.

At some point you start hoping a dude like Trump shows up and makes up a reason to sanction your own country. No reason in particular, you just to watch it burn. Because it deserves it.
