It resulted in David Brooks outdoing Jonathon Capehart's admiration of Joe Biden. Later the same evening, the Washington Week panel was in a party mood, relieved that Joe got a break.

I hear the laments on election night, "I can't believe this. How did this happen?" when Biden loses to Trump.

Best.
