It's been a big week in US politics with Donald Trump's partial legal victory in the Supreme Court and Joe Biden's disastrous head-to-head debate with his predecessor. A debate that went so badly, Democrats have openly called for him to be replaced by a younger candidate with just 5 months to go before the election. Meanwhile Trump is highly unlikely to face trial over allegations he tried to overturn the 2020 election. The conservative-leaning Supreme Court has ruled that any president in the White House should not be held liable for any crime they may have committed in the course of their official duties. The liberal minority of judges could barely hide their contempt for their fellow justices with one declaring "with fears for our democracy, I dissent." Irish Times Washington correspondent, Keith Duggan, breaks down the ruling and analyses the likelihood of Biden withdrawing from the race.


Presented by Sorcha Pollak. Produced by Aideen Finnegan.
