Photos of his smiling face are plastered on shop windows, and one admirer held a sign reading, "2024 — Make Joe President Again."Back home, Biden's approval rating is near the lowest point of his presidency.

Biden's Ireland trip has been heady with nostalgia and fellowship — grand sweeping hills and cozy towns fitting for just such a mood. During Biden's visit to Warsaw, Poland, in February, thousands of people gathered at the foot of the Royal Castle to hear the president deliver a speech on the eve of the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
