[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve not been treated badly because I’m American but I have regularly experienced a “test” where someone in Europe will try to find out what kind of American you are…trumper or not. If you “pass” the test, i.e not a trumper, you are treated great.

I have personally seen A LOT of nasty tourists from all over the world, most notably American, British (quite a few tbh), and Chinese and Japanese (this last one was more about HUGE groups of tourists and they will cut off others. [/quote]

OP here. These days I’m afraid the assumption in a lot of Europe is that you’re a Trumper unless and until you produce a European passport. That’s what we’ve been told at least!![/quote]

When I traveled under Trump I put as much distance between myself and him as I could (given an appropriate opportunity of course). He pushed other world leaders aside (literally)  called poor nations  “sh*thole countries,” thought he could buy parts of other people’s countries, made fun of disabled people, of overweight people..,

Of course I did not want people from other countries to think he represented me.[/quote].

Pushed other world leaders aside? (well, two at least: Merkel and Macron) and frankly, I didn't care.  They want to milk our country for defense/subsidies but thwart our every policy proposal.  It was better than Obama "leading from behind."  And those "s...hole countries" must be pretty darn great, given how many people are fleeing them.  Yes, Trump was crude, but right most of the time.
