"Some people get their worldviews from ideological constructs or philosophical movements like ‘conservatism’ or ‘progressivism.’ Biden derives his worldview from lived experience," writes @nytdavidbrooks. nyti.ms/2RzPkwM
“We’re kind of at a place where the rest of the world is beginning to look to China,” President Biden told David Brooks. nyti.ms/2RzPkwM
“I watched my dad get the hell kicked out of him in terms of his pride,” President Biden said.

“The risk is not trying to go big,” Biden told him. nyti.ms/2RzPkwM
"Biden is not a progressive in the current sense," writes @nytdavidbrooks. nyti.ms/2RzPkwM
"Biden hasn’t really changed; he’s just doing everything bigger."

“Everyone thought the Democrats would be the ones having to explain themselves today,” says @FrankBruni in a chat with @MalloryMcMorrow and @JVLast. “But the underperformance belongs to the Republicans.” nyti.ms/3fPsXj5
