Joe Biden’s vast foreign policy experience will give him the tools to demonstrate his ambition for the international leadership that has been missing in the last four years.
With less than 80 days until the US presidential election, poll numbers suggest that Donald Trump’s popularity is declining, whereas the chances of witnessing a power shift are increasing.
The way President Trump has handled the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted his reelection prospects. The US is the most affected country in the world; unemployment was at a record high of 14.7 per cent in April, and the US is dealing with its worst economic recession since the Great Depression. Furthermore, the killing of George Floyd has sparked unprecedented protests across America.
Joe Biden’s polling numbers are high, and most importantly, they are high in battleground states. He is leading in the blue wall states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, states which Hillary Clinton lost in the 2016 election.
