Summary

It's 2 weeks till the election and things are ramping up. With early voting in full swing, Sami & V break down the latest data and see what the results are showing in NC, GA, VA. Trump shuts down a McDonalds and pretends to work the fryer, and why they will never be able to drink an Arnold Palmer again. (Though we could go for a burger right now.) Elon Musk also runs a questionable $1 million giveaway in Pennsylvania, which may put him in legal trouble (if Trump doesn't win.) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
