Checks and Balance: Donkey years

Economist Podcasts - Podcast autorstwa The Economist

For two years Democrats have held the Holy Grail – control of the presidency and both chambers of Congress. The midterms will, most likely, put an end to that. Divided government is going to make Joe Biden’s agenda much harder to pass: what will the legacy of his first two years in power be?  The Economist’s Henry Curr takes us through “Bidenomics”. We go back to the last time Democrats had a government trifecta. And The Economist’s Stevie Hertz speaks to voters who have been helped by the Biden administration, but may not realise it. Charlotte Howard hosts with Idrees Kahloon and Jon Fasman.You can now find every episode of Checks and Balance in one place and sign up to our weekly newsletter.
