Travelling to different countries and not worrying if you might need a visa to enter their border is a sign of good foreign policy.  The eagle has lost its might when the Trump Administration controversial foreign-policy decisions in building borders up against different countries.

However, the US still remains with the same visa-free score but may drop down because other countries are signing the bi-lateral agreement for a visa-free entry. Thus the US foreign policy may affect the continuous downtrend for the US Passport power.
