Time’s up, Joe

• My question for Biden in this race is not whether his announcement week goes well. It’s what does he do AFTER the first week (or so) of the campaign is over?

Save your breath. Keep extra words tucked away for use later. After means when it’s over, so you don’t need is over. Saying after it’s over is sort of like saying when it’s over is over.

In Biden’s case, who knows? Perhaps when it’s over actually IS over. We’ll see.
