Trump: The Return? | Panorama

Duration: 28'52''

Synopsis

Will Donald Trump run for president again? On the eve of the US midterm elections, reporter Hilary Andersson visits Selma, North Carolina, to find out whether voters want him back. Trump's final days in office saw his supporters attack the US Capitol, bringing the country to the brink. The country has remained dangerously divided. As many Republican candidates line up to support Trump's claim that the 2020 election was stolen, Panorama asks whether American democracy can withstand the destructive forces now converging upon it.
