Humax TV Tonight: Trump: The Return explores Donald’s political status

Trump: The Return is on ITV1 and ITVX tonight at 9pm.

Award-winning ITV News correspondent Robert Moore gauges the political climate as America commences an election year with former president Donald Trump holding a significant lead in polls over the incumbent Joe Biden, ahead of what he has described as his 'final battle.'

Never before has a former president been charged with federal and state crimes, even amidst multiple attempts to prevent him from appearing on the ballot. Never before has a candidate conducted a campaign for the White House amid such allegations. Never before has the country faced the possibility of an incoming president governing from jail.

Yet the man who has dominated and transformed American political life is once again convulsing and dividing the nation, and could potentially become the next leader of the free world.

Robert has been covering American politics for 20 years and was ITV’s Washington Correspondent during Trump’s first term. He witnessed the political aftermath of Trump’s unfounded claims of a stolen election and comprehended its impact on Trump’s loyal supporters and an emboldened militia movement.

On 6 January 2020, Robert was at the heart of the most controversial and divisive event in modern American history, leading ITV's news team as the only crew embedded with the mob storming the Capitol. His shocking and visceral coverage went on to win more than 20 awards across the world.
