The Andrew Neil Report

In this extra addition of The Andrew Neil Report, Andrew takes the lay of the land ahead of a massive week for US and world politics. The final polls look disastrous for Donald Trump, but they've underestimated him before. Yet Andrew believes that if, as predicted, it's a tough night for the GOP, Donald Trump's detractors may not be in for celebration. A President with nothing to lose in his last two years in office could be a dangerous proposition. This is The Andrew Neil Report. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
