Can Trump fix America's economic problems - or are they bigger than one politician?
Description
As votes continue to be counted in the US, President-elect Donald Trump has swept all seven battleground states, confirming his dominant performance in the country’s election.
While many were shocked that the US would return to Trump after four years, many voters have made it clear their feelings about high inflation and the cost of living under the Biden administration swayed them towards the Republicans.
It’s a similar sentiment that helped National, Act and NZ First ascend to power in our election last year.
But, in a global economic environment, how much sway does one political leader have over how much you're paying for groceries and petrol?
Today on The Front Page, we discuss this with NZ Herald business editor at large, Liam Dann.
