Summary
The rules of the last TV debate were set by Joe Biden. And that didn’t go so well for him...Jon has an incredible story of the hours leading up to that debate and who knew what. But right now those debate rules are being re- litigated by Kamala’s team, who now say they want the mics left live. Will it happen?
Later, why is Trump now talking about women’s reproductive rights? And what does the suspension of RFKs presidential campaign actually mean for him, for Trump, and for Harris?
