Business Insider: Europe is abandoning Trump on the world stage as it turns away from the US toward China
* Recent polling suggests Europeans are turning away from the US under President Donald Trump's leadership.
* Public opinion toward America has declined in major European countries since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
* Seventy-six percent of Germans in a new poll said their view of America had deteriorated because of the crisis.
* Roughly equal numbers of Germans in the poll favored maintaining close relationships with China and the US in a head-to-head matchup.
* One poll last week found that just 2% of French people trusted Trump to provide world leadership.
* China is exerting growing political, diplomatic, and financial power across Europe.
