Ben Rhodes and Michael McFaul on Biden's foreign policy speech

Rhodes:






Very smart of Biden to go right at Trump’s weakness on foreign policy and to link the imperative of restoring our democracy at home to our ability to support democracy abroad.





Michael McFaul commenting on that tweet from Rhodes:





Agreed. Great Biden foreign policy speech, especially on importance of restoring values at home and abroad.

anti-liberalism forces, the dangerous nationalistic movements sweeping even the countries of our
allies, and to tie these threats in with Trump’s presidency. So good to know Ben Rhodes and Michael McFaul are praising Biden’s grasp.
Biden sure shows himself in step on global matters and the fact that crucial issues on the domestic
front and climate change are not happening in a vacuum.

Thanks, Cha for posting this.

7. Biden at his best! He's very inspirational. I get goosebumps when he talks about the American idea.

And, he doesn't mince words when he attacks Trump.

I love his idea of a Summit of the World's Great Democracies. What a refreshing change from having a president who is more comfortable with authoritarians and dictators from North Korea, Brazil, Russia and the Philippines than he is with the majority of the American people.
