Anna M Anna M (Sep 30 2020 8:42PM) : Effective strategy more

I don’t know how I’d debate somebody so unhinged and childish, but I thought Biden’s strategy of speaking directly to the camera and the “American people” was pretty effective. One of the commentators noted after the debate that there were basically three separate conversations happening at once: Trump vs. Biden, Trump vs. the moderator and Biden talking to the American people

Biden obviously oversimplifies and undersells the deep roots of racism that run through every institution in this country… We’re not going to fix it with a single summit at the WH. But at least his message seems to be one of unity and not division.
