Could Joe Biden be replaced? Why the president is refusing to give in to his critics

ABC  

Welcome back to your weekly update on US politics, where North America bureau chief Jade Macmillan catches you up on the biggest developments in America as we hurtle towards election day in November. Trump's reaction was subtly brutal, with the former president pointedly looking over to Biden as he started to fumble — a move highlighted by the split-screen format. Biden also repeated some of the lines he'd used in the debate to attack Trump's integrity, and introduced a new one, describing the former president as a "one man crime wave". The intense focus on Biden's debate performance means Trump's hasn't attracted as much scrutiny as it ordinarily would have. Trump tried to avoid answering a question on whether he'd accept the results in November, eventually responding "absolutely" — but with the caveat of "if it's a fair and legal and good election."
