This week, Chloe and Emma try (and fail) to lighten things up with a discussion of the young, progressive congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, shoes … and fracking. They also talk about the first ‘television president’ and why JFK’s Presidency might be a weird mirror for Donald Trump’s. And, in a week where polls seem to show Joe Biden set for victory, they discuss the history and the so-called “science” of polling, where pollsters went wrong in 2016 and whether they can redeem themselves in 2020.
