    Jeet Heer Retweeted Jonathan Bernstein

    This is a good account of Biden's pitch, which is he'll be a normal president -- a promise about behavior more than policy. It already had strong appeal and Trump's erratic handling of recent instability (pandemic, protests) makes it only more likely to win.https://twitter.com/jbview/status/1267923131747971082 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Jonathan BernsteinVerified account @jbview
    On Biden's speech and representation. His big promises are to be a thoroughly normal president with a "duty to care." And he'll probably keep those promises, while being a mainstream liberal on policy. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-06-02/biden-s-speech-on-race-shows-how-he-will-govern?sref=rMMJuv3g …

        Weird how we haven’t heard much about Hunter Biden lately.

        This was essentially the John Tory pitch to succeed Rob Ford as mayor of Toronto.

        Which was of course successful, without even having the added benefit of the Mayor not having control over nuclear weapons.

        As someone who has not been a Biden supporter, I must say the “I’m a normal human with empathy” pitch is proving more and more compelling...
