Summary

Jenn, Alex, and guest host Jen Kirby — who will be filling in for Zack while he’s on paternity leave — talk about what a Joe Biden victory would mean for the world. At the moment of taping, Biden is on the cusp of winning the presidency and Republicans look likely to hold on to their Senate majority. Both results, if they pan out, would impact US foreign policy and how the world views America. The sleep-deprived Worldly gang lays it all out. References: Here’s the current state of the presidential race. Alex’s deep dive on what a Biden foreign policy might look like. The frontrunners for Biden’s foreign policy team. Mitch McConnell has already signaled he may make Senate confirmation tough. Biden wants to tell the world that “America’s back.” But a reminder that, whatever happens, Biden will inherit a very different world.
