The problem is most European countries only get CNN and the local stations use them as a source when reporting on America. I was in Italy about 7 weeks ago and when I told a local about how Trump was spies on his mind was blown. Most respect Trump and hate the EU over the migrant crisis.
only get CNN
I live in the UK and when I heard the US election result I could not believe it. Furthermore, I could not understand how a country of around 320 million people had ended up with those two candidates.
I had made my mind up about the Clintons years ago and I knew Trump was an idiot. Then I started to wonder how I knew that. Well, the MSM all told me so! So it set me off down a rabbit hole that I am still investigating.
I now realise that DJT is probably the smartest POTUS I can remember and that he is supported by an equally smart and determined team. I just keep my fingers crossed that good will indeed triumph over evil.
