Biden’s trip to Ukraine was designed to showcase his leadership skills, specifically his ability to unify the west in support of Ukraine in its war against Russia. Trump’s trip to East Palestine was designed to showcase his leadership skills, specifically his ability to reassure working class voters that they were not forgotten. Biden’s message was about competence: Trump’s was about sticking up for the little guy.
Polls show that GOP voters are evenly divided on whether aid to Ukraine should be maintained or decreased, and Republican leaders are just as noticeably split. Senate leader Mitch McConnell traveled to the Munich Security Conference last week along with almost fifty other members of Congress to demonstrate their support for Ukraine.
The growing tendency among American voters to look inward has become most apparent over the last several years on issues relating to international trade, as leaders from both parties have retreated from the bipartisan consensus in support of robust global economic involvement that has existed for several decades. But now this turn toward protectionism may be spreading into other types of international engagement as well.
