As Biden slowly erodes Donald Trump’s leads in the final swing states, we convene our favourite expert regulars for an all-star postmortem of Election 2020. Former Obama staffer Amy Pope, UCL politics professor Brian Klaas and Steve Schmidt of never-Trump Republican political action committee The Lincoln Project look at what Trump has done to American democracy – and how Biden could fix it.

“Democracy doesn’t function in societies where there is no ability to distinguish between the truth and lies” – Steve Schmidt

“There were two elections – one moral, and one political emergency, to remove Trump. We only had the latter” – Brian Klaas

“Trump has already lost. We just have to wait this out.” – Steve Schmidt

Presented and produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production
