US midterms: Trump’s Republican party gets a drubbing
US President Donald Trump blames a lack of love, but Vice President JD Vance blames him for the Republican party’s generational trouncing at this year’s midterm elections.
With control of both the House and Senate switching to the Democratic Party, all eyes are on the Dems to see how they will use their power. Will they try to impeach the president or work to solve the cost-of-living crisis?
The shockwaves from the historic result will reverberate well beyond the US. Hosts Ben Lewis and Claudia Farhart are joined by former Republican and Democratic party officials to discuss the implications.
Hosts: Ben Lewis, Claudia Farhart
Guests: Bruce Wolpe, United States Studies Centre; Kim Hoggard, former White House official
Producers: Nick Ludlam, Ali Cheevers, Billy Dahlenburg, Greer Chester
