Swamp Notes: After the debate, is this it for Biden?

Joe Biden went into Thursday night’s CNN presidential debate hoping to assuage concerns over his mental acuity and fitness for office. But his performance only heightened those concerns — and may even force Democrats to reconsider their standard-bearer. The FT’s deputy Washington bureau chief, Lauren Fedor, and Washington reporter, Steff Chavez, join this week’s Swamp Notes podcast to explain why.
