Under a massive tent constructed on the White House south lawn and amid more than 300 guests seated at candlelit tables, President Biden, first lady Jill Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron playfully toasted to the American president’s forthcoming reelection campaign during last week’s state dinner, yet another sign that the White House is preparing…
