11. Russia and China are loving this

In one day we went from respected to mocked. I think we might be able to keep our status as a superpower if he's impeached and removed soon (and in 2018 we get control of Congress) , but otherwise i really don't see us retaining anybody's respect.

We were the country who elected Barack Obama and the world loved us in 2008. Maybe we can redeem ourselves in the next election too. If we f that up, our reputation will be forever stained.
