look at the two years. look at what has happened in two years with the united states on foreign policy. now the united states is respected. countries may not like what we do, but they respect what we do. part of the job of being in the trump administration is telling obvious ridiculous lies so you and ambassador nikki haley in announcing today she would be leaving her post at the end of the year spoke of how respected we are after the trump administration s amazing two years. well, a new pew research poll shows how america s international image has actually taken a beating. confidence in trump stands at just 27%. no confidence at a whopping 70%. a plurality says the u.s. is doing less to help address major global problems, and 70% say the u.s. does little or nothing to take into account the interests of other countries. you know who is feeling good about the trump administration? the despots of the world who have been given an explicit green light to do whatever they want, including
the globe are blasting president trump s decision to pull out of the paris accord. nearly 200 countries back the agreement. the united states is one of three that have rejected it. syria and nicaragua are the others. a lot to discuss with fareed zakaria. you said the u.s. resigned as leader of the free world. i think symbolically, it s that important. its 1945, the united states las been the leader in organizing coalitions to global problems, security or military or even pandemics. so for the united states to take this signature achievement that took years and years to do and finally got india and china into the tent that was always the big problem with climate change.
that s the dirty game of politics. i think the candidate who quits spending and wasting the donor s money is a better candidate. we are going to keep this discussion up. coming up millenials grew up in a time the world is under threat of radical islamic terrorism. they blame the u.s. for global problems. take a look at this video by campusreform.org where caleb took a camera to harvard university and asked students a question. what is a bigger threat to world peace, america or isis? to world peace? america. western civilization is to blame for a lot of problems we are facing now. in many ways, america. america is making decisions that are much more likely to aaffect the world. they have a skewed view of us like americans have a skewed view of them. you know? of isis? yeah.
optimistic, but i m mildly optimistic. i think he s put together potentially a very good team. i think kerry and hagel and brennan and in a curious way now as the presidential adviser, but his very much interest in affairs with a team that s going to focus more on the problems on the ground. that is to say basic fundamental strategic challenges that are confronting us. mrs. clinton was terrific. i like her. i respect her. she was enormously energetic. but she had more of a visionary agenda, global warming, global problems, suffering, injustice, jends jendser gender issues, rheau is rights. all extremely important. but if we don t deal with the problems confronting us right now, we ll never get to dealing with the big problems in the end. so i am hoping that this new
states. yes, unemployment in the united states is in a terrible position, and it should be focused on, and there should be a job summit, and i m happy for bill clinton to run one. but to take an organization whose focus is on a global economic development, and to decide that the united states, the richest country in the world, is the place where the attention should be focused while there are other countries struggling with much worse conditions than ours, i m having a little trouble with that one. does it make sense to you? well, i can understand your perplexity, lawrence. after all, global problems, i mean, there is hunger around the world. food prices are going up. energy prices are going up. you would expect there would be many other things for the clinton global initiative to look at. but this is, remember, bill clinton. and under bill clinton, 22 million new jobs were created in the united states. this is a man who s very concerned about jobs, and he s also very concerned, i be
