Democrats, including many of Biden's challengers in the presidential primary, have labeled Trump's visit a mere photo opportunity.

"His conduct reinforces that we urgently need a president who can restore our standing in the world, heal relationships with key allies Trump has alienated, and deliver real change for the American people," Bates said.
