Race to the White House ramps up with one week to go

Writer and broadcaster Esther Krakue has weighed in on why former US president Donald Trump appears to be unpopular outside of America as the race to the White House ramps up. It comes as a poll suggests two-thirds of British people claim they want Trump to lose. “It's because our media class who see themselves as the arbiters of polite society just cannot fathom the idea that this man might actually be popular domestically,” Ms Krakue told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “You don't have to necessarily agree with Trump or even like him or even vote for him to understand where people that would vote for him are coming from. I'm sorry, it's not like that he's exactly facing a stellar candidate in Kamala Harris.”
