Trump polling at 9% with Europeans

By Rachel Chason and Eugene Scott, CNN

Good thing for Donald Trump that he isn't running for office in Europe.

Just 9% of Europeans surveyed have confidence in the presumptive Republican nominee to do the right thing in world affairs, according to a new Pew Research Center poll Wednesday.

Eighty-five percent of respondents in 10 EU countries said they have no confidence in Trump, who has described his foreign policy doctrine as "America First."

Trump's rival, Hillary Clinton, earned much more positive marks among Europeans, with 59% saying they have confidence in the former secretary of state. Twenty-seven percent expressed no confidence in Clinton, Pew found.

the country, one member stood up and said Trumps popularity was running about 21 percent in England

and "25% in the North". I was as surprised as anyone.
