Weird–when Biden’s aides came around to chat up Newsweek’s reporters in 1987, in advance of the presidential primaries, my impression was they were way more self-confident (and thuggish) than their candidate’s virtues justified. Cultures are hard to change?

Good point. He’s not exactly keeping up with both sides of the debate. Need I say that being insulated from bad news is a really bad practice for a leader. See LBJ, Vietnam. https://t.co/Sl09ahAyNX

Biden was clearly overprepared. Not the main problem, which is his decline. But Klain & Co. are supposed to adjust to the decline.
