      Jeet Heer Retweeted David Weigel

      "Nothing will fundamentally change" is a reprise of Clinton's "America is already great" message of 2016: a promise of only tinkering with a fundamentally strong status quo. Trump is widely hated so I think Biden can win, but it's a weak message.https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1141424664763412480 …

      I had thought the Biden “nothing will fundamentally change” quote was a paraphrase, but no, he indeed said just that at a fundraiser this week. pic.twitter.com/2A0chtsnDw

      Actually, I think he could win big with that message. No guarantees but, after this clown show, it will sell.

      I think it could win but it'll leave unchecked the fundamental problems that created Trump and give the world President Tucker Carlson by 2024 or 2028.

          Here slow but steady rise in the polls is heartening.

          The fundamental problems that brought us trump have been with us since the civil war. They're not going way no matter what. Biden is utterly uninspiring, but swing voters in swing states obviously feel differently about it. In the meantime: #Warren2020

          If he was running for GOP primary, the message would be perfect. He might have a chance in General by getting never trumpers. But would he get black & minorities, progressives, women votes? I doubt that.

          This. Just don’t get the folks who only focus on that November date. What you do after matters far more in any scenario.
