Mark the Week: Was the ceasefire expiring Trump's worst hour yet?

from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.    GDP: 9/10  The Infometrics Q2 read is the final nail in the misery merchants' coffin – the turnaround is real.    Chris Hipkins: 4/10  Between the streaming bill he didn’t know he had and the Prime Minister interviews he didn’t listen to, does this look like a guy who is razor sharp and ready to rumble in an election campaign?    Ginny Andersen ruling out all taxes: 7/10  Big call and had to have made Chlöe choke on her oats.    The ceasefire: 2/10  Is that Trump's worst hour yet? Think of all the things he said versus all the things that didn’t happen. It's almost as though he makes it up or doesn’t have a clue what's going on.    Liam Lawson: 9/10  Oh, the irony of hand injuries and Zandvoort. Can we really rule a podium out?    LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEW See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
