In this special, Robert Costa takes viewers on the road through Pennsylvania, one of the key swing states that voted for President Trump in 2016.

That year, he traveled through Pennsylvania, reporting on voters from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia. His report, just two days before the 2016 election, was prescient, revealing a large swath of Trump signs dotting the industrial part of the state.

Now, almost four years later, Costa meets some of the same people he encountered to see how they are faring. In the middle of the current pandemic, economic collapse and reckoning over race, what will Pennsylvania's landscape look like now?
