John Harris: “At a transformative moment in history — when the onrush of changes in climate, technology, demography, and global balance-of-power are creating a new generation of urgent policy challenges in the United States and around the world — the 2020 race now promises to be effectively devoid of new ideas.”
“Instead, this promises to be a race above all about character and personal qualities. It will be waged by old men — age 73 for the incumbent, age 77 for the presumptive challenger — whose essential worldviews were formed decades ago and whose essential instincts and preoccupations are backward-looking.”
