with me is former cbs news correspondent christina ruffini. thanks for being with us. seems quite genuine. i think so. last time we were here, we were talking about nato, i think so. last time we were here, we were talking about nate, and i spent the whole week over there talking to various foreign ministers, and at that time, president biden was still in the race, and there was an effort to have this universal message of supporting him, he has done a great job with the alliance. i think that was all true, but behind the scenes, they were all very nervous about november and very nervous, and those nerves were not allied by some of the gaffes we saw at nato, you know, him introducing president zelensky of ukraine as president putin, and i think some of those nerves continued. i reached out to some tonight. a european defence minister told me a while ago, if you like, there is oxygen in the room, but it will not be an easy ride. a european foreign minister said this is a historic but not actual surprise, and both of them expressed optimism but also nervousness, because n

california, jane harmon, to stay with us if you can, joining me now is foreign affairs journalist christina ruffinioman was addressing, how does the democratic party deal with this? it's been two weeks were almost all that's been talked about isjoe biden�*s capacity and we see that death just a short time ago where he called president zelensky president clinton. i think the democratic party itself is figuring out how to answer that question so i can't answer that question so i can't answer it because they don't know how to answer it. i was talking to someone who is a member of the administration during the debate and i was texting what we were all texting, like this looks really bad and they said look to me, i work with prison biden everyday, this is not indicative of his ability to do hisjob. the problem with that is the ability for the american president to communicate on a global stage is part of the job. the ability to debate rivals, the ability to stand up in front of world leaders and properly named the president of ukraine, and what you just saw, you know, representative harmon who i respect
