CNN anchor Jake Tapper called it the trait Biden kept emphasizing and the one Donald Trump struggled to communicate. A great example from the first presidential debate in September: after Trump bragged about all the jobs he had created, Biden faced the camera and said: \u201cYou folks living in Scranton and Claymont and all the small towns and working-class towns in America \u2026 how well are you doing?\u201d While Trump later mocked that move as a gimmick, Biden used TV moments like that to demonstrate empathy. But one interesting aspect of his digital campaign was how well he (and his social media team) communicated that trait online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take his approach to Twitter. Biden\u2019s campaign made explicit references to the candidate\u2019s empathy. In January, Joe Biden&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joebiden\/status\/1220162986863542272?lang=en\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cEmpathy matters. I think it\u2019s important \u2014 not only for leaders \u2014 but for everybody to treat people with respect.\u201d And in October, Jill Biden&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DrBiden\/status\/1319358189222191106\">tweeted<\/a>: \u201cEmpathy is on the ballot.\u201d Biden did not just talk about empathy though; he used his Twitter account to&nbsp;<em>perform<\/em>&nbsp;it. And he did that through the language of his tweets. In addition to \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/citeseerx.ist.psu.edu\/viewdoc\/download?doi=10.1.1.698.6711&amp;rep=rep1&amp;type=pdf\">empathy words<\/a>\u201d like&nbsp;<em>treat<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>people<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>respect<\/em>, Biden used second-person pronouns to strike a conversational tone and signal his understanding of the problems afflicting voters. Take&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joebiden\/status\/1313612499263127552\">this tweet<\/a>&nbsp;about Trump\u2019s decision to stop negotiating a second coronavirus relief package: \u201cIf you are out of work, if your business is closed, if your child\u2019s school is shut down, if you are seeing layoffs in your community, Donald Trump decided today that none of that matters to him.\u201d Or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/joebiden\/status\/1315321762524127240\">this one<\/a>&nbsp;from National Coming Out Day: \u201cI want every member of the LGBTQ+ community to know you are loved and accepted just as you are \u2013 whether you\u2019ve come out or not. I\u2019ll fight every day in the White House to create a country where you can live open, proud, and free \u2013 without fear.\u201d Trump, on the other hand, used most of his \u201cyou\u2019s\u201d to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1322250257086865409\">thank people<\/a>&nbsp;for showing up to his rallies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that distinction, between Biden\u2019s personal touch and Trump\u2019s fan cult, was evident on Instagram too. There, Biden often posted&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ijoc.org\/index.php\/ijoc\/article\/view\/13128\">the kinds of images<\/a>&nbsp;that read as compassionate. Of the 249 photos and videos his campaign shared in October 2020, 11 featured kids, 12 featured Biden interacting one-on-one with people, and 40 featured individual supporters instead of the candidate. These kinds of content reinforced the narrative that Biden knows voters. He also used a lot of \u201cyou\u2019s\u201d in his captions. On October 5, for example, he&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CF-RniPhn-_\/\">posted a photo<\/a>&nbsp;of himself talking to a voter with this caption under it: \u201cI\u2019ve been traveling to different communities across the country to talk to folks like you. I want you to know that I\u2019m listening and I hear you. Thank you for sharing your pain and loss, and your hopes and dreams. You inspire me every single day.\u201d Now compare that to Trump\u2019s Instagram account: 55 of 143 photos and videos the campaign shared in October showed the massive crowds at Trump\u2019s rallies, but none showed Trump interacting one-on-one with voters. Just one featured kids, and only two featured individual supporters instead of the candidate. Trump\u2019s captions were also short and impersonal. And some posts had no caption at all. While Trump\u2019s account depicted him as a \u201crock star\u201d candidate, it also evoked a sense of detachment. Biden\u2019s, on the other hand, emphasized his personal connection with voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, so what? Trump was not running on empathy anyway. He had different goals \u2013 like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1177\/1461444818797591\">bolstering his populist image<\/a>&nbsp;\u2013 to achieve on social media. And he used different tactics to get there. But comparing his approach to Biden\u2019s is useful because Trump\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0267323116682802\">amateurism<\/a>&nbsp;on social media, and the perceived success of that approach in 2016, highlighted one of the potential drawbacks of professionalized accounts in political campaigning: the perception of inauthenticity. For example, Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign took some heat in December 2015 for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/latino\/hillary-clinton-abuela-factor-n485226\">a social media post<\/a>&nbsp;some people read as pandering to Hispanic voters. Biden\u2019s effective use of professionalized accounts to communicate and enhance one of his character traits shows that candidates\u2019 social media can be professional&nbsp;<em>and<\/em>&nbsp;authentic.&nbsp;It also highlights a potential drawback of&nbsp;<em>amateur<\/em>&nbsp;accounts: missed opportunities to promote qualities that appeal to a lot of voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We do not have a sense yet if or how the digital campaigns affected public opinion; exit polls will not be weighted to reflect the general electorate for a while, so we will have to wait to find out who voters thought cared more about them, and \u2013 even then \u2013 we will have to take those results with a grain of salt. But we do know that Biden used the affordances of social media far better than Trump did to communicate empathy. And that could be instructive for other campaigns.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Dorian Hunter Davis Assistant Professor in the School of Communication at Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
