About this episode

Jon Stewart digs into the backlash to America’s bed-wetting panic over Biden’s incoherence, some of the president’s recent slip-ups, the future of the Democratic candidate, and Biden’s promise in an ABC interview with George Stephanopoulos to give “fighting fascism” his all. Also, journalist and best-selling author A.J. Jacobs joins Jon to discuss his new book “The Year of Living Constitutionally,” which addresses a timely question: What does the Constitution actually say?
