"Amery's point on September 2, 1939, in the wake of Hitler's invasion of Poland, was that there are times when the Loyal Opposition needs to speak not just for the opposition, but for the country. There are times when country comes first, when a government of one's own party has utterly failed and needs to be called to account on behalf of the nation as a whole.
"This is such a time in America, in 2020."
At The Bullwark, William Kristol calls on Joe Biden to "speak for America."
