I AM SO, SO, SO, SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!! SO RELIEVED!!!!!!!!!
So excited that NATO leaders have already moved up their next meeting to soon after the inauguration so our Trans-Atlantic alliance can be repaired!!!!!!!!
Yes! I don’t know if you saw the cover of Der Spiegel this week, but I found it such a relief to see someone recognized the job President-elect Biden has been trying to get moving all along through the election: repairing democracy (for ourselves, yes, but really for all of us who value liberty throughout the world, and who know we need one another in stable world alliances to protect basic freedoms).
And let’s be honest: I’ve heard enough speeches from Macron and Merkel and Tusk and more that are laced with wariness towards the US. There’s a real fear that if populism could give the US a Drumpf once, it could happen again. I get that. The whole thing has renewed my commitment to encouraging my fellow people to understand how critical foreign policy is, and why a world with multilateral agreements among free nations is the one we all need to fight for and VOTE FOR.
Stephen’s response after the race was called, from LoTR, of course!
