As President Biden prepares to leave American politics after 50 years of service, presidential historian Douglas Brinkley joins Tara Palmeri to reflect on Biden’s legacy. Will the history books remember him fondly for his dedication to the American people, or will a controversial final year in office overshadow President Biden's lifetime of work? Plus, the two discuss what President-Elect Donald Trump could do to help or harm the legacy of his predecessor over the next four years.
