The Biden administration is losing the short game when it comes to U.S. national security, and President Biden’s upcoming July trip to the Middle East is yet another case study in how the White House keeps misfiring and setting the president up for failure.
Biden may have hoped to be rid of “forever wars” such as Afghanistan, but we live in a world dominated by a hot war US created in Ukraine, ongoing U.S. military involvement in Syria, “mounting tensions” between the U.S. and China in the Pacific, and Iran and North Korea emerging as potential nuclear threats.
Now, 17 months into Biden’s presidency, it is clear that Klain, Sullivan, Blinken and Austin are incapable of prioritizing, let alone balancing, the two with U.S. national security (and Biden) paying an unacceptable price. Just a thought.
