President Donald Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden have presented voters with two contrary visions for the role the United States should play on the world stage.
President and founder of the Progressive Policy Institute Will Marshall said Republicans have attempted to use "globalism" as a scare tactic.
“If that means that you realize that you are better off and safer by making common cause with fellow democracies in the world, trading with them, forging security bargains with them for mutual defense, collective security, if that’s what’s globalism means then yes, Joe Biden is for that," Marshall said.
Marshall echoed Biden's claim that Trump sullied the United States' standing in the world, specifically with allies.
“If you say ‘America first and I don’t give a rip about your country or other countries,’ well, the people in those other countries hear that and they reciprocate," Marshall said.
