Is America heading towards disaster?
Manage episode 423130965 series 119180
With just five months until the presidential election, American democracy is under serious threat.
This American presidential election will be unique for many reasons, not the least of which is Donald Trump becoming the first American president to be found guilty of a crime. So what impact – if any – will that have on the outcome? Is Biden going to be able to mobilise enough support in key states to win a second term? And what might another Trump presidency mean for Australia? On this episode of Follow the Money, the Australia Institute’s Emma Shortis joins Ebony Bennett to discuss US politics after her recent trip to Washington DC.
This discussion was recorded on Tuesday 11 June 2024 and things may have changed since recording.
