But the reality is that most of the world knows Trump is bad, so almost all international investors will be downgrading the US.
I wouldn't worry too much. Stock markets are worse predictors of the future than pollsters.

Just think: if we weren't sending our young men and women into harm's way, weren't spending trillions on unwinnable wars, we could put those energies and efforts into stuff right here at home.
Profitable stuff.
