Trump trumps Biden as president-elect overshadows White House incumbent on world stage
Fox News
Has the Oval Office been replaced by Mar-a-Lago? That's the question being asked as world leaders increasingly look to President-elect Trump rather than President Biden when it comes to diplomacy
"While President-elect is still weeks away from taking the oath of office, loyalties and the attention of world leaders has shifted to the incoming President and from Washington to Mar-a-lago with breathtaking speed," Wayne Lesperance, a veteran political scientist and president of New England College, told Fox News.
Matt Mowers, a veteran GOP national public affairs strategist and former diplomat at the State Department during Trump's first administration, made the case that "Joe Biden’s essentially been a lame duck" for months and that "world leaders have been shifting their gaze to the next administration."
