42. On Liberty | Zoe Daniel | How An Unprecedented Presidency Changed Everything.

Donald Trump turned America on its head and shocked the world, taking an isolationist approach to foreign policy, shaking up global institutions and fomenting the rise of ‘fake news’. How did the reality TV star win over the hearts and minds of so many regular Americans from Ohio to Florida? And how, after four years, does he have more supporters than ever? This week, three-time foreign correspondent and former ABC News US Bureau Chief, Zoe Daniel joins us to discuss her recent book Greetings from Trumpland explores how an unprecedented presidency changed everything. Through interviews with regular Americans who backed the mercurial president in mid-west America, to those who felt the wrath of his no-holds-barred presidency, this book is an inside look at the historic one-term presidency that changed the world and an insightful examination into how America, and the world, can move forward. Join us as Salvatore Babones speaks to Zoe Daniel about this new book and her experience witnessing the unlikely rise of Donald Trump to the presidency, reporting week in and week out on this renegade 'anti-politician'. From historic summits on the world stage with Kim Jong Un, to the rusted steel mills of Pennsylvania, Zoe and co-author Roscoe Whalan were ringside as Donald Trump navigated his way through four years in the Oval Office. Zoe Daniel is a three-time foreign correspondent and former ABC News United States Bureau Chief. She was based in Washington DC from late 2015 until the end of 2019. Zoe was ABC’s Southeast Asia correspondent from 2009 to 2013. Zoe has written two other books including her 2014 memoir, Storyteller.
