President Joe Biden may have done some of his best campaigning for his re-election by going to France for four days. To be clear, the commander in chief's visit to Normandy was nonpolitical, but his presence among European leaders, the stirring rhetoric of his D-Day anniversary speech and the contrast it drew with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump helped his re-election effort immensely.
Europe's troubles put America's decision in stark relief. Right-wing parties’ victories in last week’s European Union elections and French President Emmanuel Macron’s dramatic calling of elections in the face of losses to the Le Pen party put the stakes of the U.S. election into a sobering relief. There is something more profound at stake than a tiresome rematch between two old men; democracy at home and abroad is on the ballot.
