In less than six weeks, Joe Biden and Donald Trump will compete for the White House — and Democrats and Republicans for control of Congress — in what could be the most consequential election in modern US history.

It appears Donald Trump was merely prophesying the America he would create as President.
What happens next? What are the key issues motivating American voters as they head to the polls? Can American democracy meet the challenges it faces, including Trump’s threat to stay in the White House if he loses?
