Summary

The last confrontation between Donald Trump and Joe Biden avoided the shame of the first debate, but did it change the dynamic of the race? And how come we didn’t discover a mute button back in 2016? Thomas Gift, Associate Professor of Political Science at UCL, gives Dorian Lynskey the verdict on the election’s final stand-off. “This was Trump’s last chance to speak to America… and he needed to flip the script.” “For Trump, some days Biden is a secret agent of the Far Left and on others, he’s Washington Establishment.” “Campaigns are poetry, but politics is prose.” “In the first debate, Donald Trump set a bar so low it’s not surprising Joe Biden cleared it.” Presented by Dorian Lynskey. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers: Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees.
