Trumped

Hurrican Irma and Hillary Clinton's Memoirs

Duration: 18 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC World Service East and Southern AfricaLatest broadcast: on BBC World Service Online

President Trump’s attention has been focussed on a natural disaster - what has been happening in Florida following the impact of Hurricane Irma. But in recent days Washington has also been thinking about ‘What Happened’ - Hillary Clinton’s newly released memoir of last year’s election.

Was this what the President had in mind when he tweeted that he finds it fascinating to see people write books ‘and yet they know nothing about me’?

Anthony Zurcher, BBC North America reporter and his guests in Washington explore what the President has been saying, using his own words – his tweets – as a starting point for a conversation about the power of the Presidency. Among Anthony’s guests in the BBC Washington studio will be Joanne Bamberger, author of Love Her Love Her Not – The Hillary Paradox – as Trumped considers the reaction to Hillary Clinton’s book.
