President Joe Biden said Thursday that the Supreme Court's decision ending a constitutional right to abortion is “destabilizing," but he maintained the ruling does not affect U.S. standing on the world stage as he took credit for modernizing the transatlantic alliance to adapt to new threats from Russia and China.
Biden was speaking to reporters at the conclusion of a five-day foreign trip to huddle with NATO allies in Madrid and the leaders of the Group of Seven advanced democratic economies in the Bavarian Alps, which came as the nation was still grappling with the fallout from Friday's Supreme Court decision.
“America is better positioned to lead the world than we ever have been,” Biden said. “But one thing that has been destabilizing is the outrageous behavior of the Supreme Court of United States in overruling not only Roe v. Wade, but essentially challenging the right to privacy.”
He added: “I could understand why the American people are frustrated because of what the Supreme Court did."
You seem to have learned well from your time as the Most Equal Comrade's veep. He of the apology tour and the acceptance of the book Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent from Hugo Chavez at an Americas summit, in full view of the world's press cameras.
It just makes anything you have to say about US leadership on the world stage come across like so much horses---. When you were running for president, you marketed yourself as the foil to Trump's chaos and bombast. You're not living up to your advertising.
