It’s been 100 days since the first case of the coronavirus was diagnosed in the United States. And it's been 100 days of the Trump administration denying, deflecting, and shifting blame. What can the first 100 days tell us about the upcoming presidential election? How will Trump’s leadership (or lack thereof) during the pandemic affect him politically? How is Joe Biden adjusting to a remote campaign? On this week’s episode, Jamilah King talks to Mother Jones’ DC bureau chief David Corn and senior reporter Tim Murphy. They get into Trump’s “blame China” strategy, Joe Biden’s podcast, and how a Tiger King cast member helped spice up a congressional candidate’s live stream event.
