Here is trump's take; he's really got the knack for insulting nations: nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance, https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/donald-trump-congress-london-cities-russia-b2746741.html

Another example of trump family corruption

Your headline is misleading only some AUDI models are going to be produced in the US. The site location is due to announced 2026. VW already has assembly facilities in the US for some other brands.

Remember he's considering trying to appoint Stephen Miller as National Security Advisor. trump claims he listens to Miller already a fair amount. I suggest trump (more likely his enablers) are seeding the ground for further efforts in breach of his Oath.

It's true. Underlines what a moron he is. BTW Looks like Stephen Millen is going to be appointed National Security Advisor. A White Supremist as National Security Advisor - Trump has really lost the plot!!!

Repetitive lying and misinformation e.g. Stop the Steal. Attempting to destroy democratic institutions and Rule of Law in USA and elsewhere.

Besides flaming please factually define Australia as a "fake ally".

Nonsense

e.g. The Australian. Foreign Policy influenced by trump's moves against PRC, though I believe government in Oz will not be going down trump's path that got Oz trade in so mush trouble with PRC last time. if I recall correctly if trump upholds tariff s on Oz will cost our economy approx 25 billion.

Matter of opinion

As policy related to retmps currewnt term = mirror image of paleo conservitism

deleted

Actually source is paleo conservatism which Stephen Miller supports and influences trump https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleoconservatism

Covered and commented upon extensively by right wing media in OZ

Oh OK, now I know, trump ideology represents left wing ideology - learn something new everyday...

trump is a negative influence on right wing politics in Australia as his policies have a negative impact on Australia; primarily trade and foreign affairs.

I'm not bothering to reply, especially based upon opinions. In any case you're just too argumentative. However, it's so what as Dutton has been defeated as well as losing his seat - a landslide for Labor.

The line in the policy statement does not say that, only that support payments cease after four weeks overseas. Should Coalition obtain power need to wait for clarification as well as changes to enacted Social Services law. Personally I believe legislation to reverse pension portability would not pass as it would create a lot of political grief with pensioners forced to return to OZ

Another attempt at suppression of Free Speech. Highly like Supreme Court will squash

It's normally accepted border seizures represent approx 10% of what actually gets through border control. Basically Bondi either very poorly described the outcome of the intercept or she's an idiot. https://usafacts.org/answers/how-much-fentanyl-is-seized-at-us-borders/country/united-states/

Well known trump and Co are corrupt, so it would be no surprise whatever. Recent example with not a squeak from MAGA. https://www.forbes.com/sites/zacheverson/2025/04/17/donald-trump-eric-dominari-holdings-advisory-board-3-million-stock/

Didn't Abbott get a role with HMG for "boat people" strategy. Think I may be correct he's the one who came up with Rwanda - lol

Agree. He reminds me of Tony Abbott who also misread the Australian people

Yep, currently forecast Dutton will lose. Last time Trump was in power Australia aligned with Trump which hurt economically. Dutton tried playing the tough guy and with trump coming to power again and turned around with tariffs on Australia really annoyed many Australians, lost money of the stock exchange and Superannuation values being reduced and harmed some aspects of the Australian economy quickly lost favour. We will know by 4th May if he won / lost.

Will miss your contribution, one of the few voices making sense on this forum.
