NICOLE WALLACE (ANCHOR): You know, Yamiche, it's — I don't know if it's just a sign of this moment, but to talk about diplomacy being back, to talk about Joe Biden's empathy and humanity, to talk about diplomacy being back, it is all an implicit rebuke of Donald Trump's foreign policy stewardship over the last four years.
YAMICHE ALCINDOR (WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT, PBS NewsHour): That's right. And in just saying that they're going to do their jobs, and be good stewards of America's role in this world, and focus on American diplomacy, that in and of itself being a rebuke of President Trump has underscored what we've all been living through in the last four years, which is a president who wanted to be more isolationist, who wanted to pull back.
What we saw today — I was sitting in that room in Wilmington — I was thinking about the fact that Joe Biden in some ways, for supporters, is fulfilling the promises that he made on the campaign trail. He said he wanted to have a cabinet that looked like America, and there were people there on that stage — of course talking about all of their different accolades and their experience — but they were talking about their families, who survived the Holocaust, who survived coming from Cuba and fleeing communists, who talked about having "gumbo diplomacy," cooking food, cooking Southern food as the United Nations Ambassador was saying. All of those things are what America's about, it's this melting pot.
The other thing I'll just say, I was talking to a Democrat, who just said this also said it felt like The Avengers. It felt like we're being rescued from this craziness that we've all lived through from the last four years, and now here are the superheroes to come and save us all.
