Did Democrats Give Donald A Dig Out? - Irishman In America 51:32

منذ 27 weeks51:32

Did Democrats just do Donald Trump the biggest favour ever by helping avoid a government shut down? Marion McKeone has another theory. This week as a St Patrick's Weekend Special we are giving you the entire unabridged episode of Irishman in America. It seems only right given that this is the week when every American feels Irish and our Taoiseach visited the Oval Office. With everyone asking "how did he do", a few things have been missed - including the used car lot on the front lawn. In the meantime Ukraine is being pummelled and very few are paying attention. We get Marion's take on the latest peace talks and two brilliant book recommendations for your long weekend. Don't switch off, stay awake. Join us as a member to hear the full podcast each week.
