Rachel Maddow: Big Boy Press Conference Showed Biden Is A Master Of Foreign Policy

Posted • July 14, 2024: Someone tried to assassinate Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

Rachel Maddow and the rest of MSNBC's hosts agreed: Biden-Harris HQ @BidenHQ: “Maddow: President Biden showed a startlingly impressive command of the issues at his press conference. He is not only strong on foreign policy, he is just just fundamentally right on foreign policy in the way that he talks about it. It just shows you he is a master of the foreign policy field and has been for decades in his career.” -- The world is a mess, thanks largely to the weakness Biden has shown to the world. (…)
