Wow, has it been quite the show folks, get ready for one heck of a finale?

Hello Cleveland.

Welcome to Meet the Press.

Now I'm checked out reporting from Washington, and yes, I'm at the helm for my last daily

Meet the Press now, before I pass the Meet the Press baton to my friend and colleague

Kristen Walker.

Look, I've got a busy hour ahead.

We got some new developments tied to the sweeping election interference case in Georgia.

We've got new reaction from the rising star in the Democratic Party on growing anxieties

about President Biden's age and ability to serve.

Oh, and we're tracking a monster storm in the Atlantic called Hurricane Lee as we wait

for it to turn north or up and turn north, please, and avoid hitting any parts of the East

coast.

I want to begin today in my last daily show, but the single biggest story in American

politics, and that is the state of our politics.

Look, there's nothing I revere more than our democracy in the history of this country.

It's why I stumbled into doing this.

I just devour political history, and I love our political system.

All of it's nooks and crannies, because the beauty of politics at its best is it's

anyone's game.

Anybody can get into it, but it only works when everyone agrees to the rules.

And that means accepting defeats at the ballot box and moving on to the next election.
