US elections will be held tomorrow November 3 amid a situation of growing chaos and instability in the global “superpower.” The Coronavirus pandemic continues to rage on in cities and towns across the US. After eight months the country continues to be the global leader with over 9 million confirmed cases and 231,000 deaths. Meanwhile, millions in the country face economic uncertainty and instability, with real unemployment at an all-time high and evictions looming on the horizon. 

Ben Becker, editor-in-chief of Breakthrough News discusses with us the plight of millions of Americans amidst these historic elections and how the Republicans and Democrats are unable, and unwilling, to respond effectively to the real problems that they face.
