Am vierten November, einen Tag nach der historischen US Wahl, lud die Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Nordamerika und Kanada Experten aus Deutschland und den Vereinigten Staaten zu einer transatlantischen Diskussionsrunde ein. 

Besprochen wurden nicht nur die ersten Hochrechnungen, sondern auch die Botschaften aus dem Biden Wahlkampf, die Relevanz von bestimmten Wählergruppen und eine gesellschaftliche Vision für die USA nach Donald Trump.
