John Heilemann, a political analyst, joins comedians Jordan Klepper, Ronny Chieng, and Michael Kosta to dissect the aftermath of a chaotic debate. They discuss Trump's insistence on winning the debate and absurd conspiracy theories like immigrants eating pets. Ronny investigates these wild claims, while Michael humorously navigates Philadelphia's parking chaos. Heilemann shares insights from the media spin room and argues that Kamala Harris came out on top, raising questions about whether the debate influenced undecided voters.
