Politics Central: What does Donald Trump's verdict mean for the upcoming election?

Associate Health Minister David Seymour believes the Government can justify spending more on cancer medication.

Finance Minister Nicola Willis has vowed they will deliver on spending $280 million on 13 new drugs - an election campaign promise they weren't able to deliver in the Budget.

She told TVNZ's Q&A that an announcement on the drugs is coming very soon.

But Mr Seymour says they have to figure out how to spend more while saving across the rest of the system.

"That's going to be a conversation, I suspect over the next few weeks, around - how do you actually make good on a promise to those people within the confronting financial circumstances?"

There's fears of further polarisation in the US regardless of whether Donald Trump wins the election.

The former President's been convicted on all 34 counts of falsifying business records before the 2016 election.

He also faces further legal battles, including his handling of classified documents and his role in the Capitol Hill riots.

Otago University professor Robert Patman fears violence may be possible.

"Either because Mr Trump doesn't win the election - or if he makes good on his promise, he will go after those people, from day one, who incarcerated or jailed Trump supporters for their involvement in the 6th of January."
