How divided is America?

An article in the Irish Times caught my eye - ‘Is the United States headed for Civil War’? It’s a pertinent question as the US heads towards midterm elections, halfway through a Joe Biden presidency, that has just come off the back of the presidency of Donald Trump. A book that delves into the question of America’s division is ‘This Will Not Pass’, co-authored by, Alex Burns of the New York Times who spoke to Kieran on the show.
