Poll finds Americans concerned as Trump accelerates global intervention

Description:

President Trump raised eyebrows when he told the New York Times that there was only one thing that could stop him on the global stage: his own morality.


So what do Americans think about the moral standing of the United States? Well, a new NPR-Ipsos poll finds Americans still want the U.S. to be a moral leader in the world — but far fewer think it actually is. 

Senior Political Editor and Correspondent Domenico Montanaro shares more from the poll, and Senior International Affairs Correspondent Jackie Northam helps make sense of what it means globally.
