Opinion | 2024 was a bad year for basic decency in America. You can thank Trump for that. | Opinion — USA TODAY

Trump thinks that he can somehow just compel Denmark to hand over Greenland, its protectorate and Panama to just surrender control of the Canal. This delusional behavior will harm our interests around the world.

Joe Biden never got credit for steering the economy after the Covid pandemic killed over a million Americans. Historians will laud his investments in infrastructure and domestic clean energy manufacturing. Biden is leaving our nation with a far stronger economy than he inherited from Trump.
