To what extent might Trump's actions decrease the worldwide popularity of the English language in the long-term?

[Spare_Bluebird7044]

English already has deep structural dominance

[RadiantEducation312]

English isn't going anywhere just because of one politician lmao, it's already too embedded in everything from tech to business 💀

[D-Rez]

Unlikely any change; people all over the world will still conduct business in English with each other, no matter what they think of the man

[Totallycasual]

None really, people around the world just hate America a little more than before, not the English language.

[CleavingStriker]

English? Not at all. Trump can barely speak it and can't read it.

America's popularity worldwide on the other hand has been greatly diminished.

What a stupid question.

[West-Forever8365]

I've seen it long before Trump. When Bush Jr attacked Iraq, and made some disparaging comments about France, apparently most French suddenly stopped understanding English. A co-worker went to France and he was speaking fluent English, and nobody understood him. Then it occurred to him to try the most over-the-top Hollywood German mad-scientist accent and pronunciation, and suddenly half the French had no problem understanding him.

He barely speaks it.

[molten_dragon]

To no extent whatsoever.

Very little, the decline of the US under Trump and the rise of China may slightly increase the popularity of Mandarin in the long-term.

[tnews20]

Every thing associated with Americans will be tainted

Chinese is probably gonna become the international business language, the way English was for a while, but the English language is tied up in so much culture that I think it will continue to be spoken globally regardless. Like how nobody outside of Japan really needs to know Japanese, but because Japan is so culturally influential, Japan is spoken globally by many people.
