Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has been welcomed with open arms during her trip to the United States, appearing on late night TV, speaking at Harvard University, and sitting down with politicians from both sides of the aisle, including President Joe Biden.   Her rapturous reception in the US comes as Ardern’s popularity in New Zealand wanes, with recent polls putting Labour and National neck and neck, in spite of the successes that have made our PM so popular overseas.  Is this trip going to help reverse those dipping poll numbers, or has it highlighted areas where Ardern’s international reputation falls short of her local achievements?      Today, NZ Herald political editor Claire Trevett joins Damien from Washington DC for an inside look at Jacinda Ardern’s return to the US.   Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
