Donald Trump's former national security advisor, John Bolton, has made a number of explosive claims about the US President in his new book, The Room Where It Happened.

Bolton says Trump wanted help from China to win re-election, thought that building internment camps in China was "the right thing to do" and offered "personal favours to dictators he liked".

Given that Bolton refused to testify during the Trump impeachment hearings, how seriously should we take the claims made in the book?

Marion McKeone joined us to discuss this, as well as today's Supreme Court rejection of the Trump administration's attempt to end the 'Dreamers' programme.
