Powerline muses on the exhausting life of someone who tries to curry favor by matching a constantly shifting milieu.
The thing about chameleons is that they mostly work only against a solid background. Franklin Roosevelt loved the joke about how he once placed a pet chameleon against a plaid background: “The chameleon died.” Trump is the ideal plaid background against which to place Biden, which is why Democrats are spinning so furiously to get Biden out of debating Trump.

Reminds me of a joke I heard in the 1980s - but was probably old by then - of an exasperated reporter who hadn't been able to get a straight answer from a politician. Thinking he'd throw a softball question, he asked "What's your favorite color?" The politician looked stricken, but finally blurted out, "Plaid!"
