Description:
Join Freddy Gray, deputy editor and host of the Americano podcast, and special guest Lionel Shriver for our second instalment of Americano Live. It can be hard to keep up with Donald Trump’s ‘breakneck’ approach to his second term in the White House. What to make of all the headline-making, eyebrow-raising executive orders? Will his tariffs derail the US economy or usher in the ‘golden age’ he has promised? Is he going to achieve ‘peace through strength’ – or mire the US in yet another endless conflict in the Middle East? Is Elon Musk moving fast to save the US taxpayer trillions – or breaking the federal government for his own benefit?
To discuss all that and more, join Freddy Gray and Lionel Shriver for a full and frank assessment of the biggest story in global politics.
