Actress Fionnula Flanagan has told Liveline that she believes US President Donald Trump has "grossly mismanaged" the Covid-19 crisis.
Flanagan described as "shocking" the response of the Trump administration to the global pandemic and believes it "is going to change a lot of minds" ahead of the presidential elections this year.
The United States has the world's largest coronavirus outbreak by far, with more than 89,000 deaths among nearly 1.5 million confirmed cases, according to Johns Hopkins University.
The stage, television and film actress, who is based in the US, said there is such high unemployment, there are queues for miles to get to food banks in shocking scenes not witnessed since the Great Depression.
