What regions in Europe and other western countries would Trump win or at least do well?

I Can't Believe It's Not a Tender Thread^TM

Here's my 100% subjective "gut feeling" map of a worldwide Trump-Biden election. The hypothetical question is "Who would you like to be the President of the United States?" and the election is administered by each country/region's local authorities (hence some random authoritarian states having weird results that wouldn't otherwise be in line with their populace).

This thread is strange. Donald Trump is extremely unpopular here.

This. I don't think you guys realize how much of the world doesn't like Trump. You have to dig deep to find places where he's liked.

Pew has info about the confidence other countries have in Trump, and the picture in Europe isn't particularly pretty.

How the hell is Trump so popular in most of the African countries?

He's not popular; he's trusted to "do the right thing regarding world affairs." Africans have extra reason to be sick of ill-judged US interventions and might prefer Trump's relative isolationism when the only presidents they can compare in living memory have been hawks.

IIRC, US presidents are just always relatively popular in sub-saharan Africa for some reason. At least this has been true of both Obama and Bush. Not sure before that.

Wouldn't Argentina vote for Trump?

Would it? South American politics outside of US foreign policy controversies is a pretty big blindspot for me.

Donald Trump would easily win Russia and Slovenia and would likely carry Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Ireland, Greece, Latvia, Croatia, and Romania as well.

Ireland?

What???

IRELAND???

LOL

Not only is Biden of Irish descent himself, I can think of hardly any countries where Trump would be a worse fit than Ireland. Maybe the Nordic countries and that's about it.

Oh I wish I was in the land of Guiness
The Easter Rising lives within us.
Look away, look away, look away, Ireland.
From County Cork where I was born,
To Inishtrahull in Doneghal.
Look away, look away, look away, Ireland.

Oh I wish I was in Éire,
Hooray! Hooray!
In Derry I will take my stand,
To live and die in Ireland.
Away, away, across the sea in Ireland,
Away, away, across the sea in Ireland.
