“Joe Biden’s first trip on the world stage will look like something out of the Cold War. It marks the first official visit since the January 6 uprising, which exposed the fault lines in America’s democratic institutions. If America is vulnerable, all democracies are vulnerable. It will be the president’s job to rally the world’s democracies and put on a brave face against a group of dictators, strongmen and autocrats who have been emboldened by a former president who acted less like a Western leader and more like an overly enthusiastic fanboy.” -MD
