Jordan Klepper recaps the candidates' election closers: Kamala Harris's star-studded message of joy and Trump's "oral" presentation with his mic stand. Plus, Michael Kosta explains how Peanut the Squirrel's death could help Trump target niche undecided voters. According to the mainstream media, the 2024 election is deadlocked, so Grace Kuhlenschmidt consults a polling expert, a historically accurate predictor, and an astrologist to determine whether Kamala or Trump will win the presidency. Adam Serwer, author and staff writer for The Atlantic, talks to Jordan Klepper about two of his recent pieces in the magazine, one about the "dark fantasy" centered on unfounded conspiracies and immigration-blaming that Trump has manufactured for his followers to live in, the other about Republican "snitch states" where right-wing lawmakers criminalize and re-stigmatize services like abortions and gender-affirming care with incentives for people to tattle on their friends and neighbors. Serwer also breaks down the three circles of the MAGA universe and discusses his book, "The Cruelty Is the Point," as it explores the community of cruelty that Trump has created for his rallygoers.
