On Trump’s Orders

Boston Calling

Available for over a year

Former Secretary of Defence Robert Gates has some advice for Donald Trump about national security. Also on the programme: we hear from ranchers and sheriffs about what life is like on the US/Mexico border; we meet two Americans, who voted differently in the US election but still get along; and we learn why American business leaders want Trump to fight climate change. Plus, whatever happened to all those Americans who said they would move abroad if Trump became President?
