Comment "Australian governments have related well to US administrations in the past whether headed by moderate Democrats or mainstream Republicans."

Answer- The Communist Left Democrats complain viciously about every Republican President since Reagan (warlord), Bush senior (can't remember), Bush junior (idiot), Trump (womaniser, bankrupt) but Australian Prime Ministers have to be civil with whoever the US people choose. The Communist vitriol seems nothing to do with who they are but everything to do with being a 'Conservative' in the eye's of the Woke/ Communist.

You have to be so far right, orbiting beyond the planet Pluto, if you believe the Democrat mob in America is "Communist". Then again the Kudos Kid is so far right he's off the scale.

Hi Foxy,

This notion that Australia must rely on America for its "security" is something I don't believe. We should be a liberal democratic nation not beholding to any "school yard bully" such as America. Trump is the perfect school yard bully.

Hi Paul,

We lived and worked in the United States for close
to ten years. Our children were born there. We got to
see the workings of American politics having experienced
several presidential elections and campaigns first hand.
We got to see the workings of the country - and hence
that's why we returned back home to Australia.

There was much we didn't like.

I find that the re-election of Donald Trump as US President
a major concern. I prefer leaders who try to unite a nation
not ones who revel in political fights. Leaders who don't
use their presidential position to criticize a long list of
people they see as enemies - from the news media to members
of their own administration. to elected officials in both
parties and even foreign heads of state.

A president who shows his instability with more than 26,000
Tweets - giving us his unstable view on a range of issues
until Twitter banned him from their platform. A president
who was impeached twice and he was the first chief executive
in more than 150 years to refuse to attend his successor's
inauguration.

Trust is not something that he brings forth in people.

So, yes I am concerned as to what will happen if this man
gets re-elected.

Instability is his forte. He thrives on division.
He's unreliable and unpredictable. He thinks he's
above the law. and much much more. His actions and
past behaviour has not inspired trust. And his
mental state is questionable.

Can Australia rely on such an ally in the future?

Our country may have to look elsewhere if this man
gets in.

It may amount to us crying for America - but staying
well away.

A few days ago the Biden regime designated the Houthis as a terrorist group due to their attacks on international shipping.

Trump had previously designated the Houthis as a terrorist organisation and had effectively put them into their shell. Biden, thinking he understood international affairs better than Trump and anxious to appease Iran had reversed Trump's policy.

Now Biden/Blinken have reversed the original foolish reversal, not that anyone in the compliant media will mention it.

What will a Trump presidency mean? It will mean that the enemies of the west will be put in their place. It will mean fewer wars - just like last time.

Hi Paul,

How closely would Australia want to work with the US
under Trump? We probably would be taking different
paths, especially if we're led by leaders like
Peter Dutton. Trump is likely to drive a harder
bargain on AUKUS and US policies in the Asia-Pacific
especially in relation to China.

US support for Ukraine could be problematic. We need to
be prepared for the economic impact.

More independent foreign policy would prevail for us
and taking steps to reinforce our own democratic system.
Our own regional security, our political culture,
protecting our own democracy.

Trump has certain long-term views. He's allergic to
alliances, and he's sympathetic to strong men like Putin
as I've stated earlier. His views echo isolationism.

With him as US President, things would certainly change
not only for Australia, but for the rest opf the world.
