Episode Description

How will the history books look back on Joe Biden’s time as President? Will he be remembered for leading the US out of a global pandemic, or has that disastrous TV debate against Donald Trump destroyed much of his reputation? Prof. Julian E. Zelizer’s new book, The Presidency of Joseph R. Biden: A First Historical Assessment, delves into what lessons can be learned from the Biden era.
