00:08on his landslide victory last week.

00:24Thank you. But within a couple of days, we have learned of a third assassination attempt

00:44not just do the right thing, but maybe mend some fences between this government and the

00:49incoming presidency of Donald Trump's, given that the whole of his cabinet have been so

00:54rude about him over the last few years?
