At a rally in Raleigh, N.C., following his universally criticized debate performance, President Biden attempted to draw a distinction between himself and Donald Trump: “I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong.”
Knowing right from wrong presumes a standard that is universal, not personal. Try arguing with the supermarket cashier that the price for the pound of meat you are trying to buy is not what is written on the label but what you think it should be. The next word you hear might well be “security!”
