About this episode
Were America’s presidential election to be held today, Donald Trump would probably win . We examine the winds shifting in his favour, and how the Biden campaign might tack against them.

And remembering Vivian Silver , a Canadian-Israeli peace activist who died at the hands of Hamas (20:51). Sign up for a free trial of Economist Podcasts+.
