BIDEN: Too Frail to Lead - The Story of President Biden's Health Fallout

Описание: What happens when one bad night ends a presidency?

In this explosive episode of our new mini-series, Chasing Power: The 2024 Unraveling, host Charles Denyer dissects the 90-minute debate collapse that forced Joe Biden to become the first incumbent in 56 years to quit a re-election race. This episode moves from the stunned silence in the CNN studio to the frantic, behind-the-scenes panic that fractured the Democratic Party in just 24 days.

This chapter traces how years of carefully managed appearances and whispered concerns crashed into the unforgiving reality of live television. From the immediate donor revolt and the betrayal by allied media to the ultimate intervention by party elders, this episode explores the containment field built around a president, and the historic chaos that erupted when it finally shattered.

The debate was supposed to end the whispers.
Instead, it ended a presidency.
And the cover-up was over.
