Trump Wins Republican Nomination

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Delegates from across the US give Donald Trump the necessary votes to confirm him as their candidate to take on Hillary Clinton in November. Join Fergus Nicoll in Cleveland, where the Republican Party is holding its national convention. He's joined by Marketplace reporters Nancy Marshall-Genzer on the convention floor and Lizzie O'Leary in New York. Also with Fergus in Cleveland is Tracey Nichols, Director of Economic Development on the City Mayor's cabinet. We'll report live on the convention and take a tour round the city of Cleveland to talk about what's drawing young people there, how some of the city's most deprived communities are making ends meet, and the city's pride and joy -- the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that is one of America's cultural landmarks.
