“Trump had a terrible foreign policy record, but the Democrats have done a lousy job of reminding voters why it was so bad. Four years ago, the Democrats understood that the right way to use it against him was to call attention to his reckless and dangerous actions that brought the U.S. closer to war. This year, they have chosen to attack him for not killing more Iranians and for being willing to talk to adversaries. In short, they have been using the standard Republican attack lines about weakness and appeasement that are normally directed at them. When some voters are already inclined to believe the lie that Trump is antiwar, Harris’[s] hawkish messaging is a free gift to the Republican campaign.” (10/16/24)
