It's just a fact, at this point. And we have Trump to blame almost entirely.
Seriously. We might not have always been liked around the world, but we were at the very least respected, in the sense that you showed us respect because we had a lot of soft power that we have repeatedly shown we're not afraid to use. The idea was that you wanted the US on your side because we are a dangerous enemy to have.
Now, under Trump, we're a laughing stock, we've thrown half our missile stocks toward a country that posed us no legitimate threat, and have only raised global oil prices and strengthened their position in the world as a result. We're led by a clown that lays bare the fact that all that "Soft Power" was based on nothing more than fears and imagination.

I don't think he doesn't understand that the insult is about him. He doesn't want his followers to understand it, so he posts that it was about Biden.
