Regarding the final piece, the global south already knows US integrity is a joke. At least the leadership is giving younger citizens a more accurate view of what US foreign policy actually looks like, conveniently under a “liberal” president.

Pretty sure more liberals know Biden is far from liberal. He’s center at best but even he probably leans right on a global scale.

He is what passes for a liberal in the US. Obama, either Clinton, nearly any other democrat would do exactly the same thing he is doing (which is unfortunately the same thing Trump would be doing). Strong echoes of the Iraq war.

Obama said he thinks his own policies are in line with Reagan. Biden falls to the right of that on some issues, including to the right of Reagan on Israel.
