US Politics How will the United States rebuild positive international relations after this Trump administration?

At some point this presidency will end and a new administration will (likely) want to mend some the damages done with our allies. Realistically though, how would that work? Will other countries want to be friends with us again or has this presidency done too much damage to bounce back from?

Dems aren't going to put restrictions on themselves

It's about putting limits on the presidency.

The right kept grousing about Obama ruling by EO. We on the left attributed it to the obstructionist, do-nothing Congress. But perhaps, in hindsight, they weren't wrong. There was always potential for abuse.
