Germany, for one, has been reluctant to sign up for across-the-board confrontation with China, which has become a major trading partner. Biden also wants to host a summit for the world’s democracies. Sanctions and tariffs, which don’t necessarily require congressional action, are among the president’s favorite sticks. Another example: Trump quit the U.N. Human Rights Council on the grounds that it was too focused on Israel and that its members include notoriously abusive governments. And it typically is given as a course of five to 10 days of treatment. In a sign of the whiplash years of U.S. political turbulence has produced abroad, an Asian diplomat said one way to signal that the United States can be relied upon going forward is if more of its agreements with other countries were approved by the Senate. However, Gottlieb said, "The president is in a high-risk group simply by virtue of his age, 74. In the months since Joe Biden became the de facto Democratic nominee, the race has remained remarkably static — about as static, not coincidentally, as President Trump’s unpopularity over his term in office. Trump has taken a bullying tone toward many countries, including some allies he’s accused of freeloading. Obama’s first Defense secretary, Robert Gates, bluntly warned NATO in a 2011 speech of “the real possibility for a dim, if not dismal future for the trans-Atlantic alliance.” U.S. pressure led to a 2014 deal in which NATO members agreed to strive for the goal of spending 2 percent of their gross domestic product on defense by 2024. And the treatment guidelines that - from a panel for the National Institutes of Health say there's insufficient evidence to recommend for or against Remdesivir for patients with mild or moderate disease. Trump’s harsh rhetoric on the topic — he’s privately threatened to pull the U.S. out of NATO — might even give Biden more room to push the issue while still presenting himself as a welcome alternative to Trump. SIMON: You and I couldn't take it. As Bloomberg notes, “Trump had between $46.7 million and … … The authoritative record of NPR’s programming is the audio record. So an antibody is one of these immune molecules that fights off disease. Now, clearly, there's some wiggle room in there because it has been given for people with less than immediately life-threatening illnesses. Even some Trump media allies and Republicans said the president needed to do better and clarify himself. But several of the emerging infections we’ve seen have come in people who attended the overwhelmingly mask-free outdoor announcement of her nomination, including former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien, and Sens. His campaign would reveal only that his “focus is going to be on rebuilding America’s standing in the world and undoing the incredible damage Donald Trump has wreaked.”. Trump wants to leave Afghanistan. Biden already has said he won’t reverse Trump’s decision to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and recognize that city as the Israeli capital. There’s little question Biden’s foreign policy would look and feel a lot different than Trump’s. It was a historic moment, and one Biden applauded. Accuracy and availability may vary. Instead, he’s pledged to pursue more technologically advanced ways to secure the boundary. How President Trump Is Treating COVID-19 There are no proven treatments for patients with COVID-19, and the treatments that do exist tend to be used on patients with advanced illness. But he appears to have laid aside his past hopes that increased global engagement would nudge China toward democracy. Just a handful of states could decide who becomes the next president. Not only is the president, who longed for the adulation of his crowds and pushed for returning to normal public campaigning, suddenly stuck in … It ended with the president in the hospital, having contracted the virus he spent months downplaying. Doug Palmer and Lara Seligman contributed to this report. Trump withdrew from the Trans-Pacific Partnership; Biden has been coy about whether he’d rejoin that massive pact, which he once championed, saying he’d want to renegotiate parts of it. We don’t, and we haven’t for quite some time,” said Heather Conley, an analyst who served at the State Department during the second Bush administration. Biden campaign officials say they want to focus first on the domestic economic recovery, in a nod to the difficult political climate for launching any new trade deals right now. PALCA: Well, I mean, you have to remember what the word experimental means. Upon her likely confirmation, Barrett would shift the court in a historically conservative direction, 6 to 3. Given the increasingly widespread and bipartisan desire in Washington to stand up to China’s communist government, Biden could face blowback for moves that could be portrayed as soft on Beijing. But if he wins, Joe Biden isn't likely to repudiate everything Donald Trump has done. The 2020 election has been the race that stubbornly refused to change. It’s possible today’s events will fade come mid-to-late October; the temptation in election seasons is always to overemphasize the here-and-now. As it makes peace plans with the U.S., the Taliban has continued to battle with forces loyal to the Afghan government, which remains fragmented and divided over how best to end the country’s internal conflict. The Trump administration negotiated an update to the North American Free Trade Agreement dubbed the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. And Biden also wants to leave Afghanistan. Republicans signaled that they will push forward with her confirmation hearings, which are set to begin Oct. 12, and Barrett has both tested negative for the virus this week and previously recovered from it this summer. Republicans have little margin for error on the nomination, both on votes and the timeline, given Democrats could soon retake the Senate. He’s said, for instance, that he won’t tear down the existing portion of a wall Trump has built along the southern border, but that he won’t add to it. Another possibility: New rules that make it harder for foreigners to come to America to give birth to children who would then have U.S. citizenship — so-called birth tourism. When asked about this possibility during a recent call with reporters, Khalilzad said it was too soon to discuss the idea, but that he was committed to staying at least until November’s election. Biden might decide to remove some of those sanctions, such as the ones targeting officials with the International Criminal Court; but he’s likely to keep many of the so-called Magnitsky sanctions Trump has imposed on individuals overseas for corruption and human rights abuses. The president tweeted that he and his wife, Melania, will quarantine as they recover. The obvious top target for this tone is an adversary China, which itself has taken a more bellicose attitude toward the United States in recent months. But this is also a time in which people are beginning to genuinely tune in to the race and actually decide who should be president. Biden’s desire to make a two-state solution a goal of the normalization push will no doubt complicate things, not least because the Israeli right wing would fight it. It’s too early to say whether anything has fundamentally changed as far as the race’s trajectory, and predictions to that effect have long proved foolhardy. It's made by Gilead Sciences. PALCA: Because if the president gets better, you don't know whether the drug helped or whether he might have gotten better without any intervention. The drug hasn't been authorized by the Food and Drug Administration. Besides, disdain for Maduro — a dictator who has overseen the economic ruin of his country — is widespread in Washington and among U.S. allies in Latin America. That skepticism also aligns him, to some degree, with Trump, though for different reasons. He's also had an infusion of an experimental drug made by Regeneron which has shown some promise in trials. It’s the type of question that does not land well with advisers to Joe Biden: Aren’t there some Donald Trump foreign policy decisions they should keep, and maybe even build upon, if Biden wins the White House? Obama wanted to leave Afghanistan. But Kalil says the way you learn whether a drug actually works and is safe is to give it to someone in a clinical trial. SIMON: NPR science correspondent Joe Palca, thanks so much. PALCA: It's a drug from Regeneron, as you said. His decision to hold large rallies and in-person events — most of them overwhelmingly mask-free, including one even after Hicks had tested positive — was exposed for being truly cavalier. Biden leads by the mid-to-high single digits both nationally and in the states that are likely to be decisive. Biden probably will tweak the overall U.S. policy toward Venezuela somewhat, possibly to encourage more dialogue between the opposition and the Maduro regime.

John McCain, who called for establishing a “league of democracies” during the 2008 presidential campaign. The first bombshell came Sunday, when the New York Times finally got its hands on the tax returns the president has spent years attempting to keep hidden. What’s more, Trump seems to need, more than anything, for voters to sour on Biden like they’ve soured on him — similar to what happened in 2016 with Hillary Clinton — and Trump’s persistent domination of the headlines makes that more difficult. A sign on a bridge leading to the U.S. Embassy compound in Jerusalem is seen ahead of its official opening May 13, 2018.
