Trump Says He'll Sue the 麻豆社 for up to $5 Billion
The president says he鈥檒l continue with legal action despite apology.
Today, Laura and Paddy discuss President Donald Trump鈥檚 decision to continue with legal action.
The 麻豆社 apologised to the president, saying it had unintentionally given "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action" and said it would not be broadcast again. However, they would not pay financial compensation.
Chief North America correspondent Gary O'Donoghue joins us to talk about where we are with the legal proceedings, how much Americans care about this issue, and the political impacts after Trump said that Sir Keir Starmer was 鈥渆mbarrassed鈥.
