Watch this assessment by @clairecmc on @MSNBC. All 4 minutes.
"Joe Biden had one thing he had to do tonight and he didn't do it," former senator Claire McCaskill said. "He had one thing he had to accomplish, and that was reassure America that he was up to the job at his age, and he failed at that tonight."
McCaskill on MSNBC: "I'm not the only one whose heart is breaking right now. There's a lot of people who watched this tonight and felt terribly for Joe Biden. And you know, you have to ask, how did we get here?"
"I don't know how the rest of the story is written," she said. "I don't know if things can be done to fix this. They might, and Trump is so terrible that this might heal itself, but based on what I'm hearing from a lot of people... there is a lot more than handwringing tonight."
McCaskill signaled that she's been hearing from "a lot of people," including those in "high elective offices," i.e. Democratic senators. "I do think people feel like we are confronting a crisis," she said, citing "glaring weaknesses in our president" that viewers saw tonight.
