What's different about Trump 2.0?

In the first six weeks of his second term Donald Trump has
rewritten US foreign policy, fractured the Nato alliance,
dismantled parts of the US government and signed various
presidential orders on everything from border security to
diversity programmes.


In this episode Nick and Amol are joined by Brian Klaas,
professor of global politics at University College London and a
writer for The Atlantic magazine, who thinks Trump is undermining
democracy and global security (07:44).


And Nick tells Amol about his exclusive interview with Rishi
Sunak (44:36).
