'Chickens are coming home to roost': Global disgust of the US grows

President Donald Trump wants more countries to help with his war in Iran, but so far, he hasn't had any takers. According to CNN data analyst Harry Enten, there's a good reason for that.

Speaking about the growing disgust with the United States, Enten said that the global community is out.

"The people in those countries hate, hate, hate the U.S. military action in Iran," said Enten.

In Canada, that number is -27 percent. Japan is -73 points. The U.K. is -34 percent.

"The people in those countries absolutely despise the U.S. military action. Iran. No wonder the leaders in those countries are, let's just say, a little apprehensive about helping out the U.S.," he added.

Indeed, most U.S. allies rejected Trump's requests for help, even countries that rely on Iran for oil. Others haven't indicated one way or the other.

CNN host John Berman compared the Iran war to the Iraq war in 2003. During that war, President George W. Bush had administration officials court allies' involvement and made the case before the United Nations.

Canada is now 27 points less in its support for Iran over Iraq. Japan is 45 points down from its support of the 2023 war, and the U.K., which went to war with the U.S., is down 48 points from those 2003 numbers.

One of Trump's campaign comments in 2024 was that the global community doesn't "respect" the United States. Now it has become clear the world likes America a lot more under President Joe Biden than under Trump. Support for the U.S. under Trump has dropped by 79 percent.

"The bottom line is this: the folks overseas are far less likely to view the U.S. favorably. And those chickens are coming home to roost in this situation, as there's very little support abroad for the U.S. military action in Iran," Enten closed.
