John White: “In an generation when norms are regularly forged apart, one cardinal rule of the presidency stays intact: be expecting the sudden. That rule is being vindicated another time. On Election Day 2020, few anticipated Russia to invade Ukraine and start the largest warfare in Europe since Global Struggle II.”
“However the battle is right here, and President Biden is coping with a subject maximum American citizens believed have been resolved via the norms established at the Eu continent since 1945. How Biden measures up, and what the political implications for his presidency are, stay unclear. However as John F. Kennedy reportedly mentioned right through the Cuban Missile Disaster, ‘I suppose that is the week that I earn my wage.’ Biden is undoubtedly incomes his.”
