About this episode
Jon and Lewis are at the opening day of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
Joe Biden (he’s still president apparently) will be taking to the stage to give a farewell address to the Convention which should have been his.
The Dems are giddy at the passing of the torch - but is that euphoria justified? Has Kamala actually restored the Democrats’ chances? We take a look at the electoral map and what’s ahead on this big week in the American political calendar.
