Future Perfect: What Trump's Return To Power Means For Australia

Following a dizzying first month of Donald Trump’s second US presidency, Dylan Bird is joined by author and Senior Fellow at the United State Studies Centre Bruce Wolpe to unpack the moves Trump has made so far, what we can expect ahead, and what Trump’s relationship with Australia could mean for the country’s political future.

“He’s flooded the zone - he’s controlling the media … and so he has all the oxygen and all the power … People are afraid of exactly where this is going and how much authoritarian power Trump will exercise.”
