Column: Biden's foreign policy: Too leftist or too Trumpist?

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

67% : Jimmy Carter came into office seeking deep defense cuts and boasting that he lacked the "inordinate fear of Communism" that justified Cold War hawkishness.
48% : He ended his presidency asking Congress for a big increase in defense spending to "contain Soviet aggression."
40% : Last week, the Biden administration announced a defense and trade agreement with the United Kingdom and Australia, dubbed AUKUS, that has enraged the European Union, particularly France, in no small part because it will cost them billions in submarine sales to Australia.
35% : And on Friday, the Biden administration appealed a federal court ruling that suspended a Trump administration policy of using a public health law, known as Title 42, to expel migrants seeking asylum.
