Or perhaps a better way to put it is that foreign policy has absolutely zero impact on how Americans vote.

this is also true for the """good""" things that the US achieves like getting countries into NATO, which is why Biden's statement before he dropped out where he was like "I got Finland and Sweden into NATO! I got AUKUS done!" was so funny. Literally nobody cares. Most people are judging Biden and Trump based on the most incoherent criteria in human history, because none of it really matters, because both parties are promising that the treats will keep coming in. Hillary Clinton is a war criminal who brought slavery to Libya, leading to the mass impoverishment of millions of people - and I know with absolute certainty that that fact did not lose her any more than a thousand votes across the whole country of hundreds of millions, and only Libyan migrants would have given a shit. It was her hairstyle, or demeanor, or talking style, or maybe some vague exhaustion with Obama and "well, it's only fair if the Republicans get a term after the Dems got two! :)"
