@meidastouch.com Thanks trump, you've turned what would have been a likely right wing victory into a likely left wing victory at our election on 3 May because Australians don't like you or your brand of politics theconversation.com/donald-trump...
Donald Trump has cast a long shadow over the Australian election. Will it prove decisive?
It’s clear the second Trump administration is radically different from the first. This has rattled the right of Australian politics and worked to Labor’s advantage.

@meidastouch.com Also from Australian Broadcasting Corporation: To Trump, a tragedy is an opportunity - to play politics. Criticised him for politicising the LA wildfires as well. The most telling aspect of Trump's response to tragedies is what it reveals about his leadership. Great article.
