Michael O'Toole talks to Laura Colgan and Ciaran Bradley from our Irish American sister newspaper about the trials and trips of Donald Trump.

Mr Trump plans to visit Ireland shortly, and has been subject to a criminal investigation into alleged hush money payments made to the adult actress Stormy Daniels.

Laura and Ciaran give their thoughts live from the ground in New York City, to bring us up to speed with what has happened, why it is important and what will likely happen from here.

Shattered Lives is produced for Reach Ireland by Ciaran Bradley, and presented by Paul Healy and Michael O'Toole.
