    I think there's a big chunk of Democrats (and independents) who just want to return to a normal president & normal world. I don't think that's really possible but the desire is understandable. Both Biden & Harris are competing for what we might call the normie vote.https://twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1154806018213392384 …

        It’s an acceptable political strategy, but the worry is that they actually believe it. Obama was a deep believer in the idea that we could “go back to normal” after the W era

        Replying to @constans @HeerJeet

        I think a lot of us heard that from Obama and thought, “well, he has to say that so he doesn’t scare white voters,” but the man was a deep believer in institutionalism and “returning to normal”

        That would be a tragic waste of a perfectly good crisis.

        Too bad the Obama normal still sucked. What with half-baked health care and drones flying everywhere.

        Normal's gone and it was not normal. It's just it was what folks were used to.

        In a time of crisis, when honesty and an understanding of how urgently we need to change is the only thing that will save the species, incrementalism and doing what we have always done, is anything but "normal"
