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.

4/10.

"Between the Bible, the walk, the tear gas, the rants on Twitter, and the abuse on the Governor's phone call.

He won't lose his base, but history will never judge that level of unhinged activity well."

Exemptions to Border Closure.

4/10.

"For the way they handled them."

But the Exemptions as an Idea.

7/10.

"We want and need Avatar filmed here, we want and need the America's Cup sailed here, and we want and need skills, talent, and money.

What's the hold up, Phil?"

Social Distancing.

2/10.

"Between Matt King in the restaurant, the Prime Minister and Ashley Bloomfield, and the protests, the hypocrisy and idiocy has been laid bare.

Not to mention the simple truth about having far too many rules."

The "Ten Golden Rules."

1/10.

"When you're treating a nation as four year olds and giving out hand washing advice, it's over.

Enough already."

Todd Muller.

7/10.

"Better week and a half decent policy on small businesses hiring.

Produce more of that and you're back in the race."

Sweden.

4/10.

"Their economy grew, but so too, it appears, have regrets.

The chief epidemiologist says they wouldn't do it the same way again.

Not our way, but not their way either."

Space X.

9/10.

"Space and the private sector. It's years overdue and the domain of the dreamers.

Space is still as inspirational and aspirational as it ever was."

The Warriors.

9/10.

"Not just a win, but a win for the times. Out of isolation, 44 completed sets, and a scoreless opposition.

It could be the start of what could one of the great sporting dreams."

Dan Carter.

8/10.

"The pay packet tells the story.

Most who succeed in life do so for the love of the pursuit or activity, not because of the dollars.

Hope.

8/10.

"I see increasing amounts of it.

Mainly from figures that weren't as bad as expected, borders slowly opening, and planes started to reschedule.

Most places you look, the signs of new life are increasingly easy to see."
