The Fax Machine Election
The last time an incumbent president lost re-election, Google, Netflix and friend weren't verbs. The year was 1992. And it was Major's first time covering a presidential race - incumbent Republican George H.W. Bush against Arkansas Governor and Democratic upstart Bill Clinton. Let's be clear: we don't know who is going to win in 2020. But the parallels between the 1992 and 2020 elections are striking. In this episode, Major reflects on the Bush-Clinton race, what's changed and what remains the same as America renders its verdict on the first term of the Trump presidency.
