Americans head to the polls on Tuesday in a mood of discontent and division, with opinion polls showing nearly two-thirds of voters believe the country has been heading in the wrong direction under President Joe Biden.
While the United States economy is the envy of the industrialized world, emerging from COVID shutdowns with strong job growth and wage increases, many Americans complain those gains were gobbled up by high grocery and housing prices.
Talk’s Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by ‘We Need To Talk About Kevin’ author Lionel Shriver, who says she will not be voting in the US election, as she’s been in a “state of paralysis of which presidency she dreads the most”.
“They’re both unfit to lead… If it weren’t for Harris’ race and sex – she’d never be a candidate!”

Is Trump sometimes boorish and egotistical? Yes, although he seems less so these days. What matters is the policies that each candidate puts forward.
Trump has outlined his manifesto for all to see. He's been president before and the USA was relatively prosperous for that time with the exception of the Covid-19 debacle. He's been accused of being "un-presidential" in the way he speaks. In other words, he speaks like ordinary everyday American citizens and that's why he connects with them. Is he perfect? No. Does he have to be? No. He just has to be able to do the job, and he's proven that he can.
On the other hand, Harris has virtually no manifesto to speak of and she's been the VP of a disastrous administration. Furthermore, she was never elected as the Democrat candidate. She was installed at the last minute as a replacement when the Democrat elite finally had to admit that Biden was too cognitively impaired to have chance of winning. Harris never reached where she is today through merit, only by means of being a DEI hire.
I'm not an American so I can't vote in this election. However, if I was, I'd certainly back Trump and I hope he wins.
They always drag these weirdo's out that no one takes seriously or listens to.
What’s the point of Trump winning the woke media will continue their narrative of hate and lies on him.
😁🤣. . . the key thing here is Trump has been POTUS. . . and the sky never fell in. . . Kamala is an idiot, as for the polls, they have never been so wrong and up and down in history
Trump lesser of the two evils unfortunately
Donald Trump did not organise the rally on January 6th, he was still speaking when the first protesters, were ushered inside. When he heard what was happening, he both said and tweeted, for people to go home in peace. A tweet that was surpressed for several weeks.
Donald Trump has been very measured on this 2024 campaign. The angry, insulting and frankly rabid rhetoric has come from the Democrats.
I dont think that RFK jr, Tulsi Gabbard, Joe Rogan and many other former Democrats would support the man these two blinkered women describe. Nor would J R Vance accept the position of running mate. Live in your bigoted echo cambers, ladies.
The most honest I've heard yet. Poor America and poor us 😢
I would vote Trump for Vance…!
Too much evidence an election was stolen. Denial not possible.
Very stupid to not vote
I think it is horrible if one does not vote
As they say its a nogo
You are unfit to speak trump 2024
It was a coup
There is no such thing as a competent communist
Trump 2024.
Satan is the father of lies and Satan is also the father of communism . Better to have Trump than have Communist Kamala
Sorry Julia is making her views so obvious.
I hate to hear Trump demeaned by the speakers. We all agree that Trump is no angel but to use an old trope he isn't running for pope. Trump knows how to connect to a part of the electorate that is either demeaned, ignored or taken for granted. He is in charge, not some mysterious cabal that no one in the press seems to be able to name. For the most part he knows how to pick people to get things done. He has his finger in the pulse of the country. He holds people to account including our international "friends". These are some of the positively positive qualities Trump brings to the table. So, I repeat Trump does not deserve to be demeaned by the speakers.
30 or 40 % did not vote in Britain and we we ended up with the communist Labour Party
DO ONE JULIA…
I'm sorry but your vote is part of the freedoms that were fought for. I have no time to hear excuses from people who easily give up their duty simply because they don't feel like it.
Kamala’s most suited for Sesame Street, or Fraggle rock 🤡
Julia you really are a disingenuous fraud you pretend to be brave and outspoken nope just another media shill
she voted trump
Harris is a Great man for the people 💙
I don’t agree with your guest. Harris is beyond incompetent and dangerous. Trump is more rational and the more positive aspects of his team are Kennedy, Vance and Gabbard. They will make a very positive contribution and the right kind of change the US needs. Especially with corrupt corporations like big pharma and organisations like WHO. These same issues are negatively impacting on our country. Unfortunately we have a Marxist leader!
Donald Trump was smart enough to become a billionaire! Joe Biden has never been anything but a politician! This guest whom you are interviewing cannot seem to be able to communicate either! The Democrats continually spew forth vile language that runs half of America a nothing but garbage! Donald Trump did leave office peacefully! The election of 2020 was rigged, period!
If there was cheating why can't some one day so, you just can't let people cheat you
Watching a day later – LOL!
