The 2020 presidential election is shaping up to offer the American people the most dramaticforeign policy choice since Ronald Reagan challenged Jimmy Carter’s appeasement of the Soviet Union with a platform of rolling back and defeating that "Evil Empire."
That will be particularly the case if Donald Trump winds up running against the current Democratic frontrunner, former Vice President Joe Biden. In contrast to President Trump, who recognizes China as a "foreign adversary" that is intent on “dominating the world,” Mr. Biden insists that the Chinese communists are not even competitors – let alone existential threats to freedom.
It would be bad enough if that were just a deeply misleading, indeed malfeasant, statement.
Worse yet, it smacks of appalling corruption in light of the $1.5 billion Beijing invested in his son’s business while Biden was in office.
That’s a problem, folks.
