Good morning. We’re covering the week after the debate — as well as the French election, a Chinese rocket and ghosting.

America’s image
Whatever its ultimate effect on the campaign, the first presidential debate of 2024 certainly did not cast the United States in a favorable light.

It featured two elderly men — one 81, one 78 — who insulted each other and who most Americans wished were not the two major-party candidates for president. One candidate told frequent lies and portrayed the country in apocalyptic terms. The other struggled at times to describe his own policies or complete his sentences.

The image of the nation as some combination of unhinged and doddering was especially striking at a time when the U.S. is supposed to be leading the fight against a rising alliance of autocracies that includes China, Russia and Iran. “I am worried about the image projected to the outside world,” Sergey Radchenko, a historian at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, wrote on social media. “It is not an image of leadership. It is an image of terminal decline.”

Radoslaw Sikorski, Poland’s foreign minister, seemingly compared President Biden’s performance to Marcus Aurelius’ failure to find a competent successor in ancient Rome, which hastened the empire’s decline. “It’s important to manage one’s ride into the sunset,” Sikorski tweeted.

Russian officials — whose recent online behavior suggests that they are rooting for Donald Trump — portrayed the debate as a sign of American weakness and disarray. The result “is good for us,” Dmitri Novikov, a Russian lawmaker, said on state television. “Destabilization inside an adversary is always a good thing.”

Where does the campaign go from here? That’s the subject of today’s newsletter.

Solid vs. shaky
Most Republicans are committed to Trump, even as he continues to tell lies and reject core principles of democracy. The situation with Democrats and Biden is obviously more uncertain.

The Biden campaign and its allies have tried to describe the night as just another bad debate performance (as my colleague Michael Shear explains), not so different from weak showings by Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan. But it was different. Biden seemed incapable of accomplishing basic political tasks, such as explaining what he had done in his first term, what he wanted to do in a second term and how his opponent’s policies could harm the country.

Since the debate, Biden has looked more competent in public appearances. But his struggles during the debate will be hard to forget. Yes, he may sometimes be as sharp as ever. And, yes, he has accomplished a great deal during his first term. Nonetheless, he also sometimes appears to be a typical 81-year-old whose acuity is uneven and whose fitness for the presidency is questionable.

In a CBS News poll conducted after the debate, only 27 percent of registered voters said that they thought Biden had the mental and cognitive health to serve as president. By comparison, 50 percent of voters said Trump did.

Biden and his aides insist he will not drop out. But the race is clearly more volatile than before the debate. We encourage you to watch three different areas in coming days to evaluate Biden’s position.

1. Polls

Several major pollsters are likely to release post-debate polls in coming days, and they will shape political discussions this week.

Before the debate, Trump had a very small lead in national polls and a slightly larger lead in most swing states. If the polls remain similar after the debate, Biden’s aides will be able to argue that it didn’t alter the race’s dynamics. The aides probably won’t put it this way, but it would suggest that swing voters already understood Biden’s age was a problem before the debate.

If Biden lost meaningful ground, however, the political atmosphere could change quickly. More Democrats who now support Biden — or who at least haven’t called on him to drop him out — could begin to oppose him publicly.

(You can follow the polls this week through The Times’s polling averages.)

2. Donors
A key group to watch will be Democratic donors. Without the money that Biden’s campaign expected to raise in coming months, it may struggle to run enough advertisements to frame the election as it hoped — as a choice between a decent man who cares about Americans and a selfish man who cares only about himself.

During and just after the debate, many donors felt panic, and many still do. But Biden’s campaign has kept the criticism from spiraling over the past few days, as this Times story documented.

When polls come out this week, it will be worth watching the reaction of major Democratic donors, including those who speak to the media anonymously. They are likely to react more quickly, and more candidly, than senior Democratic politicians.

3. Democratic leaders
Ultimately, the response of Democratic politicians will probably be decisive. So far, top Democrats, including Barack Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, congressional leaders and governors, have publicly backed Biden. In private, some have been more alarmed.

Top House Democrats — including Hakeem Jeffries, the party leader, as well as Nancy Pelosi and James Clyburn — have questioned his viability in private, according to NBC News. If Democrats do mount a serious effort to persuade Biden to step aside, politicians who have worked with him for years are likely to be the messengers of doom.

The chances that Biden quits the race seem small this morning — significantly smaller than they did during the debate on Thursday night. But the situation is less settled than Biden’s aides have tried to suggest. And the next several days will matter much more than early July usually does in a presidential campaign.

More on the campaign
Biden’s family is urging him to stay in the race. His son Hunter has been vocal about it, Katie Rogers and Peter Baker report.
Some members of his clan privately expressed exasperation at how his staff prepared him for the debate.
Top Democrats followed a concerted effort by Biden and his team to dismiss concerns about his candidacy.

Good morning. Today, Emily Anthes has a story about a boom in research into our furry friends. We’re also covering President Biden, Iran’s election and brain damage in troops.

I cover animal health and science.

My career as a science journalist began with a story on canine genetics. It was the summer of 2004, and a female boxer named Tasha had just become the first dog in the world to have her complete genome sequenced. It was a major advance for an animal that, though beloved by humans, had been overlooked by many scientists.

Over the two decades since, I have seen dogs transform from an academic afterthought to the new “it” animal for scientific research. In the United States alone, tens of thousands of dogs are now enrolled in large, ongoing studies. Canine scientists are investigating topics as varied as cancer, communication, longevity, emotion, retrieving behavior, the gut microbiome, the health effects of pollution and “doggy dementia.”

The research has the potential to give dogs happier, healthier and longer lives — and improve human well-being, too, as I report in a story published this morning. In today’s newsletter, I’ll explain why dogs have become such popular scientific subjects.

Big dog data
First, an important clarification: Dogs have long been the subject of invasive medical experiments, similar to lab rats and monkeys. That’s not the research I’m discussing here. The studies that have exploded in popularity involve pets. They require the enthusiastic participation of owners, who are collecting canine saliva samples, submitting veterinary records and answering survey questions about their furry friends.

One reason these studies have become more common: Scientists realized that dogs were interesting and unique subjects. Our canine companions have social skills that even great apes lack, for instance, and they happen to be the most physically diverse mammal species on the planet. (Consider the difference between a Chihuahua and a Great Dane.) Dogs also share our homes and get many of the same diseases that people do, making them good models for human health.

“Most of the questions that we have in science are not questions about what happens to animals living in sterile environments,” said Evan MacLean, the director of the Arizona Canine Cognition Center at the University of Arizona. “They’re questions about real organisms in the real world shared with humans. And dogs are a really, really good proxy for that in ways that other animals aren’t.”

Several other forces have helped fuel the canine science boom. The first is that research on nonhuman primates, especially great apes, has become increasingly contentious. For many cognitive scientists, dogs are a natural alternative: They’re quick learners. They’re cooperative. And they’re “just so readily accessible,” said Jennifer Vonk, a comparative cognitive psychologist at Oakland University.

Additionally, canine scientists do not need to house their subjects in the lab, which means that the barriers to entry are low. “A budget for an interesting dog experiment can be 20 bucks for a few bags of dog treats,” said Clive Wynne, a canine-behavior expert at Arizona State University. As a result, small colleges and universities that don’t typically get big research grants have embraced canine research.

A pet-loving public has become highly motivated to participate in studies. Owners are spending more on their dogs, as well, which has allowed the booming pet industry to conduct and fund its own research.

Then there is the media, which is generally happy to cover a good dog study. (Guilty as charged.) “Dog research is very easy to report on and understand,” said Alexandra Horowitz, a canine cognition researcher at Barnard College.

Science probably has not yet reached peak pet. Many big canine projects are just starting to produce results, and the data will generate papers — and headlines — for years to come. And some researchers have started setting their sights on another creature companion: “I think growth prospects in dogs are solid,” Dr. Wynne said, “and the upside for cats is immense.”

Yes. The presidential debate put into stark relief how Biden’s candidacy helps Trump. “Mr. President, one way you can serve your country in 2024 is by announcing your retirement,” Times Opinion’s Nicholas Kristof writes.

No. Trump didn’t do well just because Biden did terribly, and a single debate isn’t going to convince Biden to withdraw from the race. “Democrats have little choice but to dance with the candidate who brung them,” MSNBC’s Michael Cohen writes.

THE INTERVIEW
A black-and-white portrait of Eddie Murphy raising an eyebrow.
Eddie Murphy Philip Montgomery for The New York Times
By David Marchese

This week’s subject for The Interview is Eddie Murphy, who is returning to the character that sent his career into the stratosphere with “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F.” I caught him in a reflective mood. We talked about navigating Hollywood in the ’80s; his interactions with Richard Pryor, Bill Cosby and Marlon Brando; and his movie highs (“The Nutty Professor”) and lows (“Pluto Nash”).

I always wondered if Elvis was the influence behind some of the onstage stuff you wore when you were doing standup.

Elvis had a huge influence on me: the leather suits; in “Raw,” I come out, I have a scarf. I was rolling like Elvis, too. I didn’t have the Memphis Mafia, but I had my little crew of dudes. And the same way you see me dressed in “Delirious” and in “Raw,” I used to dress like that on the streets. I was totally in my Elvis trip. And when I got older, it was like, oh, my God, Elvis wasn’t cool at all. Elvis was going through some [expletive]. Now, Michael Jackson, that whole red jacket thing in “Thriller”: “Thriller” is after “Delirious” when I owned the red suit. I’m not saying he was influenced, but I had on the red jacket before. [Laughs.]

Elvis, Michael Jackson, these guys achieved the apex of fame. And there was a period when you were at that level.

Yeah, I went through all of that.

Those guys all came to tragic ends. Do you understand the pitfalls that present themselves at that level of fame?

Those guys are all cautionary tales for me. I don’t drink. I smoked a joint for the first time when I was 30 years old — the extent of drugs is some w**d. I remember I was 19, I went to the Blues Bar. It was me, Belushi and Robin Williams. They start doing coke, and I was like, “No, I’m cool.” I wasn’t taking some moral stance. I just wasn’t interested in it. To not have the desire or the curiosity, I’d say that’s providence. God was looking over me in that moment. When you get famous really young, especially a Black artist, it’s like living in a minefield. Any moment something could happen that can undo everything. It was like, all of this stuff is going on, and I’m totally oblivious. Now, at this age, I can look back and be like, “Wow, I came through a minefield for 35 years.” How do you make it through a minefield for 35, 40 years? Something has to be looking over you.
