In the third episode of our Christmas "What if" series, Emily, Jon and Lewis bring you a US politics special.
First up, they ask how the world would have been different if George W. Bush lost to Al Gore in the 2000 Presidential election. Would there still have been an invasion of Iraq? And would Donald Trump have ever risen to office?
Later, they ask what would have happened if Bernie Sanders had beaten Hilary Clinton in the 2016 Democratic primary. Would Sanders have had a better chance of defeating Donald Trump?
And finally, what if Joe Biden had a quick nap before going head to head with Donald Trump in their Presidential debate earlier this year?
