He reacts to Trump's TV interview, discusses papers-and-charts interview mistakes, British reporters critiquing US politics, and worries about a contested, fraud-plagued mail-in election amid a possible second COVID wave.
- Tim watched Trump's interview and thought he looked bad with all the papers and charts
- Jurors fell asleep the moment lawyers brought out diagrams in a murder trial
- Tim was pleasantly surprised by Trump's composure and eloquence in the interview
- Using a British interviewer to challenge Trump is a mistake for a US election
- Trump made good points about Portland and the federal vans picking up protesters
- Mail-in voting means America won't know the election winner on election night
- In 2000, the Florida recount was fun because people didn't hate each other yet and could laugh about it
- A month of not knowing the election outcome would be fatal for the country
- If a second COVID wave hits and forces mail-in voting, both sides will reject the result as illegitimate
- Tim argues the election should happen in-person with masks rather than trying universal mail-in voting for the first time during a crisis
- An all mail-in election that's close will be a problem because the country won't accept the result as valid
