    Biden should maybe, talk about that.

      I think Biden has a really tough job at this campaign.

      He’s not going to sway any Trump voters. He’s going to have to get people in key states to actually show up at the polls and vote for him.

      Several of those key states care a lot about fossil fuels. States whose biggest industry is coal, or oil, or cars, or steel.

      So harking a lot on climate policy won’t sway them much, and directly attacking Trump’s policy will just enrage Trump’s base and potentially cost him really important states.

      He has to break apathy while also not fanning Trump’s flames too much. I think that’s an incredibly delicate balance for this one issue, let alone everything else. It’s like trying to tell Bruce Banner you ran over his dog. It’s the right thing to do, but you’re still going to regret it.

        It doesn’t help that each day he gets older.
