Episode description

Plexiglass barriers. 12 feet between the candidates. Fewer interruptions. Wednesday's debate between Sen. Kamala Harris and Vice President Mike Pence looked and sounded pretty different from what went down between President Trump and Joe Biden last week, but the exchanges were still tense. POLITICO's Laura Barrón-López breaks down the biggest takeaways from the Vice Presidential showdown. Plus, Amy Coney Barrett talks with key Senate Democrats. And Trump teases a total withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan.

Laura Barrón-López is a national political reporter for POLITICO.
Jeremy Siegel is a host for POLITICO Dispatch.
Irene Noguchi is the executive producer of POLITICO audio.
Jenny Ament is the senior producer of POLITICO audio.
