Sorry respect is earned. Period.
Respect for the person is earned but respect for the office of President of the United States is a given , like it or not he is leader of the free world.

Same problem here. People see the protests in the US hyped by the media and get the wrong idea about what we are like or what it's like here. Squeaky wheels have far to much influence over the narrative.
Maybe it's a question of perspective. On this side of the Atlantic, we don't have aggressive, militarised police and a third world gun violence problem so any coverage is shocking to us.

However, I don't know why anyone would think Trump cares. He thrives on that.

I'm sure he has more important things to worry about, and frankly I hope you do too.

Wow, same here. We don't have aggressive, militarized police either
That demonstrates what I meant. You only see the rare incidents where there is a problem and you see them narrated by partisan hacks pretending to be the media. It's the price we pay for a completely free press.
We have like 800,000 LEO's interacting with multiple people every time they are on duty and still those incidents are rare. Viewed without a bias, it's not nearly as bad as US haters like to pretend it is. Isn't it odd how people who dislike our government carry that over to hating us?

Come to Europe. See what our police are like. Then compare.
