Asian perspectives of the US have shifted from a country once perceived as a force of “moral legitimacy” to something akin to “a landlord seeking rent,” Singapore’s defense chief said on the sidelines of an international security meeting.

Viewing US as landlord is about how USA behaves towards them.
How USA behaves towards foreign countries is determined primarily by the president.
You stating it’s the same, is the same as stating Trump is no different from other presidents.
If you were misunderstood, it would be better to explain what you actually meant.

nope. it’s long standing US foreign policy. president come and go, USA efforts to steal or secure the earth resources for themselves remain unchanged. Ask :
Chile, backed a coup against President Salvador Allende, who had nationalized Chile’s copper industry, replacing him with General Augusto Pinochet. This ensured that U.S. companies, such as Anaconda Copper and Kennecott, continued benefiting from Chilean resources.
Venezuela, has the world’s largest proven oil reserves. The U.S. has long influenced Venezuelan politics, including supporting a failed coup against Hugo Chávez in 2002 and imposing sanctions on Nicolás Maduro’s government.
Saudi Arabia, instigating the Petrol dollar in exchange for backing the house of saud in their theocratic dictatorship.
Brazil, covertly supported the military coup that overthrew President João Goulart,
Argentina, U.S. supported the military coup against Isabel Perón, leading to a brutal dictatorship (1976–1983). Then Operation Condor , of course.
Iraq, a million dead, to secure oil and contracts.for American and allied companies . Previously oil in Iraq was nationalised.
Ukraine. Troops in 2014, election interference, in exchange for agri contracts for monsato Thats not including today, where they are trying to walk away with the mining contracts., despite insisting it’s Europes problem.
…then there’s DR Congo, Afghanistan and so on.
but I suspect you think America has been benevolently defending these places in the name of freedom, and that Trump is some sort of rogue. From the persepective of the rest of the world, He hasn’t said, or done anything even make the top ten yet.
Are you really saying Trump is the same? Nothing has changed with Trump?
I’ve gone back over my comment, and I can’t see any where I said anything about Trump.
I checked what Ng Eng Hen said, and he didn’t mention Trump, so do you mind if we stay on topic ?
