Mark the Week: Trump is a complete and utter chaotic clown

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. 

 

Donald Trump: 1/10 

Complete and utter chaotic clown. You don’t treat the world economy like this. 

 

Clowns: 2/10 

In order: Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, Pete Hegseth, and Karoline Leavitt. 

 

The IRD: 6/10 

Collected close to a billion dollars in unpaid tax, simply by looking – quite a good concept! 

 

Paul Goldsmith: 6/10 

Is it ingenious or worrying when you're asking the Mike Hosking Breakfast for policy ideas? 

 

Wool: 8/10 

Wool deserves a break. In pure economic terms I'm not sure this is on the Government to spin the line, far less the yarn. But it's Winston's baby and he's 80-years-old today so, why not? 

 

Andrew Little: 6/10 

Is he the answer for Wellington, or a retired politician looking for work?
