Liz Truss is looking to spread her particular brand of chaos to the United States after trashing her reputation in the UK. She popped up at the latest CPAC, to give a speech to a crowd of baffled right-wingers who simply didn’t know who she was. What is CPAC, who is Truss hanging out with and what is she trying to achieve? Ben Jacobs is an American political journalist and joins Jacob Jarvis in The Bunker to answer those questions.
• “CPAC is a Trump show...this is full Trump fandom” – Ben Jacobs
• “The folks who knew who Truss was were sceptical.” – Ben Jacobs.
• “For hundreds of years people have been coming to the US to start afresh – she’s just following in their footsteps.” – Ben Jacobs
