Trump's America: A Nation Divided?

One year on since Donald Trump's election to the most powerful position in the world, Global Questions travels to Charleston, South Carolina, to hear from people in the South.

Donald Trump's Presidency has been one of the most controversial in modern times. He has polarised opinion on a range of issues with promises to cut taxes, create jobs, repeal so-called Obamacare and build a wall with Mexico. He's pulled out of the Paris climate change accord and taken on the North Korean leadership. All this on top of claims of chaos in the White House. President Trump has - for better or worse - been shaking things up in Washington.

One year on since his election to the most powerful position in the world, Global Questions travels to Charleston, South Carolina, a heartland of President Trump's support to hear from people who live and work in the South. Zeinab Badawi, together with a high profile panel of political and public figures from South Carolina and beyond, find out what they think of his Presidency and where America stands today.
