Trump and Biden Swap Roles

Joshua Green: “Over the past several months, a presidential race already upended by a global pandemic and historic recession has developed an odd characteristic that’s making it even more unusual: President Trump, the incumbent, and Joe Biden, his challenger, have effectively swapped roles.”

“The sitting president is campaigning like an outsider, lobbing incendiary tweets and blaming others for the failures of the government he himself presides over. Biden, meanwhile, is acting like a traditional incumbent, running on his record and the promise of familiarity.”
