Imagine that you’re Joe Biden, and you’re trying to design a set for your acceptance speech that is consistent with the times and creates the maximum contrast with Trump’s bombast. What do you do?
I would hire a small Protestant church for the speech. All of the overtly religious items should be removed from view, but the context would be clear from the pews. The audience should be a racially diverse group of friends, ostentatiously socially distanced, and wearing masks.
The speech itself should be intimate, positive, and quietly uplifting. Leave most of the negative stuff for the other speakers. Hope, competence, and unity are the message here.
Nothing could be less like the man on golf cart.
