About this episode

The energy and enthusiasm of this week was infectious, but with the fanfare of the Democratic National Convention in the rearview, the campaign is gearing up for the battle to come. The Bulwark’s Tim Miller joins former Senator Claire McCaskill to reflect on their favorite moments of the week, as they talk through strategies the vice president should consider as she moves forward with momentum well earned. Then, Harris-Walz campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond stops by for some perspective from inside the campaign.
