Are world leaders no longer afraid of Trump?

Trump assassination attempt: why is America so angry?

The suspect might now be in custody, but after the latest assassination attempt against President Trump, Christiane & Jamie look at why there seems to be so much anger in America right now, and discuss how people can channel their anger more effectively rather than turn to violence. They also share their own experiences of attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and Christiane explains why she felt moved by Erika Kirk's reaction to the incident. Christiane & Jamie also talk about whether King Charles's visit to the US can help to repair relations between Trump and the UK, and later they explain the latest on the Iran War and whether we're likely to see negotiations over a peace deal restart anytime soon. Christiane also reveals what the Czech President Petr Pavel has told her about the possibility of Putin invading a NATO state - and why Trump's anti-NATO rhetoric is music to the Russian leader's ears.

Q&A: Is Iran's pain threshold higher than Trump's? Plus Hormuz blockade & Virginia redistricting

In this week’s Q&A, Christiane & Jamie are asked whether Donald Trump’s confrontational “Art of the Deal” approach with Iran follows the same pattern seen in his tariff battles - and why world leaders continue to engage with these tactics. They also debate whether America's long-term energy blockades against Cuba should be judged by the same standards as attacks on Iran’s civilian power plants, and if all blockades should be considered a declaration of war. Plus, they discuss NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte’s friendly stance towards Washington, and whether keeping the US President onside comes at the expense of the alliance’s wider interests. And finally, they turn to Virginia, with Christiane & Jamie giving their verdict on the controversial vote in favour of redistricting in the State: is this just the Democrats playing by the same rules as the Republicans, or a genuine threat to democratic norms?

Are world leaders no longer afraid of Trump?

With so much uncertainty over negotiations and the future of the conflict between the US & Iran, Christiane reveals that people she's speaking to believe there could be a return to war at some point very soon. Meanwhile, Jamie explains why he thinks Trump missed a key opportunity to de-escalate when he continued the US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, even after Iran agreed to reopen the waterway. Christiane also highlights the significance of the Pope's recent interventions on the war, and Jamie looks at whether other world leaders will start taking a tougher stance towards the US President if his erratic behaviour continues.

Q&A: Could Trump be charged with war crimes?

In this week’s Q&A, Christiane and Jamie are asked whether Donald Trump was drawn into conflict with Iran by Benjamin Netanyahu, what impact decreasing global support for Israel could have on US–Israel relations, and whether President Trump could face war crimes charges. They also discuss Iran’s wartime economy, the future of US–EU ties and Democratic hopes of winning back the White House.

Is Trump losing his marbles?

Is Donald Trump fit to be President and leader of the free world? With people increasingly questioning the Commander in Chief's mental acuity, Christiane and Jamie look at some of the wild swings in Trump’s recent statements about the Iran War and ask whether he is still of sound mind. Christiane also highlights how Trump’s war tactics have backfired and turned the Strait of Hormuz into an economic weapon that Iran is using as a chokehold on the global economy - and they discuss whether there is any prospect of the Trump administration striking a deal with Iran’s leaders, or if it's more likely that the current blockade in the Strait continues. Later, they both react to Viktor Orban being ousted as Hungary’s Prime Minister in the country’s recent elections. Christiane & Jamie unpick whether this result means the end of populism in Europe, and what impact it could have on the future of MAGA in the US.
