Summary

Seth takes a closer look at a new sexual harassment allegation against Senator Al Franken and more women coming forward to accuse Roy Moore of sexually assaulting them as teenagers.

Then, MSNBC's Chris Hayes talks about why humanity's ability to adapt to anything has lessened the blow of every day's shocking news, and he shares his theory on what really motivates Donald Trump.

After that, Hayes dashes from Studio 8G to the production offices of "All in with Chris Hayes" a few floors below. He talks to Late Night producer Henry Melcher during the journey.
