At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. Donald Trump: 2/10 Possibly his worst and easily his maddest week yet. Tylenol, the war, Jimmy Kimmel, James Comey, the visas, the escalator, and the teleprompter. Unhinged doesn't even come close. Jimmy Kimmel: 7/10 Won the moral ground on free speech. Disney: 2/10 Lost the morale ground by being spineless, and putting their prices up. Fonterra: 9/10 The numbers and the success are amazing. The Ranfurly Shield: 7/10 It's changed hands four times this season and the last two have been sensational games. Palestine: 4/10 Are you as surprised as I am that after all those pledges of recognition the war hasn't stopped, the food hasn't flowed, and Hamas are still open for business in Qatar?
