“Muscular” is the word neocon chickenhawks always use to sell the foreign policy they favor, which consists of devastating regime change wars, starvation sanctions, arming contras etc. “Muscular liberalism” means doing all of the above, but in the name of human rights.

By "Democratic muscular liberalism," the Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post means warmongering Dems who continue Trump's murderous sanctions on independent countries and wage more bipartisan wars of aggression around the world. Chains you can believe in!

“muscular” is my favorite word in the US foreign policy lexicon. What it actually means is that weasely, mostly white, cowards in Washington get to feel some endorphins for bombing and starving defenseless, and mostly always brown or black, foreign populations.
