Opinion | I side with Biden on abortion, Social Security, the environment, gun control, federal judges, and international alliances. I side with Trump on debate performance and golf skills. November's election will be the hardest decision of my life.

Perfection.

This went fast - my 3rd (& final 😢) De Carle Lecture @OtagoLaw is tomorrow - covering honesty, executive empowerment and *that* prorogation. A detour into covid means I'll get the chance to introduce my NZ audience to "Eat Out to Help Out". I wonder if they'll even believe me?
