Summary
Corinne Fisher is busy performing and producing another sold-out GASH at The Comedy Store but she couldn't leave you WACOs hanging so she decided to look back at election coverage from 2020 and 2016 to gauge how the country was talking then and what the results of those elections were. First Corinne looks at the closest historical comp to this election, Grover Cleveland running as the only president to be elected to non-consecutive terms. Then Corinne looks at recent polling data from 2024, what it would mean if they were as off with polling this year as they were in 2016 and 2020, and what it would mean for this year's results. Then Corinne wraps up the episode by looking at articles before and after the 2016 election and how people were blindsided by Trump's win plus so much more!
