VP Biden and I are in complete agreement on the danger to NATO

from this current resident of the White House... Trump has attacked or ignored our allies.. and embraced dictators across the world.. and it will only get worse..I caught just a moment of his interview with Cuomo on CNN this morning..

Edit to add.. VP Biden said that if Trump gets reelected NATO may not exist in 4 to 5 years

It was a stupid idea back in the 30s when we tried it. It makes even less sense now, with the way the world is connected. Most countries will align themselves with one ofmthe top 3; the US, russia or china. Pulling out all influence from the world only ensures that China & Russia get greater control. And then we're up shit creek

I think all (or nearly all) our candidates will want to repair and restore relations with our allies, but electing Joe would send a strong message to the world that America is back. It would be almost as if Trump never happened, as it should be.

I still like my guy, just saying that I understand the appeal.

A lot.. and we really are going to need someone who can draw people back into trust with us.. I mean right from the beginning Trump was out to break up all our alliances.. I wish I could remember exactly, but when he was first elected, he pushed one of the other Nato countries leaders aside so he could get to the front of the stage.. (he has done so much it is hard to keep track) but he loves him some Putin and Kim.. whew

That was a particularly appalling episode, and totally unnecessary. Just so Trump could preen.

I agree that a President Biden would instantly bring a bond of trust that any of the other candidates would need a little time to rebuild, just by being a trusted elected name. The others could all do it, just not instantly.
