I was buoyed by Biden's speech. He talked about the importance of "truth" and honor. I hope Coons was listening. Because while Coons figures that bipartisanship means compromising on basic principles - Biden's view appears to be that truth is more important than meeting in the middle.
I've often said that Coon's version of bipartisanship amounts to "We say 1+1=2, but they say 1+1=4, so the truth must lie in the middle and 1+1=3.
Coons is a slave to a logical fallacy called
argument to moderation. Biden basically said "Fuck no. 1+1=2 and let's get some unity around that simple truth."
