S5 E14: Epilogue - Joe Biden, President-Elect

Episode Summary

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were projected as winners of the 2020 Presidential Election - about 5 days after Election Day. Pres. Donald Trump, of course, maintains he is the election's winner and the Democrats have stolen the election from him. What does Biden's win, assuming it holds up and he is allowed to move into the White House, mean for the future of the United States? P-mo, Farial and Debesh talk about the upcoming Biden presidency - and the work that needs to be done during the next four years.
