Biden seizes the moment

President Joe Biden defied history with the midterm election results by avoiding a wave of Republican victories…and made his first public address about it Wednesday afternoon. Plus, election denial in Pennsylvania. And, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial on its 40th anniversary. Guests: Axios' Hans Nichols, Mike D'Onofrio and Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund's Robert W. Doubek.
