Summary

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the podcast. Take this survey. We take the temperature on where Democrats are on President Biden staying in the presidential race with Sen. Peter Welch. He was the first Senate Democrat to call for Biden to withdraw after his "disastrous" debate performance. Then, as the Republican National Convention continues, we look at some of former President Donald Trump's policy proposals. The Wall Street Journal's Nick Timiraos and the Washington Post's Hannah Knowles join us. And, Bernice Johnson Reagon, founder of the Freedom Singers during the Civil Rights Movement, has died at 81. We remember her legacy with the Smithsonian's Krystal Klingenberg.
