Why Albo is under pressure to meet Trump

Politics Now

About this episode

As the deadline for Donald Trump's so-called reciprocal tariffs looms, Anthony Albanese has reiterated his call that US tariffs on Australia should be "zero."

It comes as Penny Wong jets to Washington to meet with her US counterpart, and pressure mounts on the PM to meet with the US President.

And 1.5 million Australians are part of the 'sandwich generation', but what does that actually mean? ABC Radio Melbourne mornings host Raf Epstein discusses the impact of the "care squeeze" on Australian families, and what levers governments can pull.

Patricia Karvelas and Raf Epstein, ABC Radio Melbourne Mornings Host break it all down on Politics Now.
