Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the presidential race sent shockwaves across the US - and indeed much of the world - as the Democrats are scrambling to figure out their next move just three months away from the general election. And while it looks like Kamala Harris will be the nominee for the Democrats, there is still a lot of uncertainty around her candidacy and how she will fare on the national stage.
To help us make sense of this unprecedented political moment, we’re joined by Jeff Weaver. Jeff has a deep understanding of how Washington politics works. He was Bernie Sanders’s campaign manager in 2016, and a senior advisor to Dean Phillips’s campaign for the Democratic presidential nominee earlier this year. He knows just about everyone in Washington, and the ins and outs of how campaigns are run - and won.
