On the Thursday preceding the 2020 presidential election, Jon and Matt sit down for a discussion of the impending chaos. Seeing as there is already enough existing evidence of what a Trump presidency looks like, the focus of this episode is mostly centered on the potential of a Biden presidency.

Specifically discussed:

-Biden’s terrible record on domestic and foreign policy

- Jon’s theory that Biden’s current policy is in essence all an effort to fix his past mistakes

- Matt’s not buying Joe Biden’s BS about his Iraq decision

- Matt’s concern about Biden's likely cabinet picks

- Jon’s hope and skepticism about Biden’s domestic platform

- How progressives should react to a Biden presidency
