Could be, Individual, but don’t look behind. They’ve already gone past us.

They’re our future leaders.

Won't be long now.

As an American I am appalled by the actions of the present administration of the USA in reversing the Obama regulations to counter climate change and pollution, to resign from international treaties such as JCPOA with Iran, to get out of jurisdiction of international organisations such as ICC and WHO, to blur the separation of state and religion called for in a present day democracy, to deny the rights of women and people with non-binary sexuality, to use the power of the pardon to favour political allies and supporters and to alienate allies while catering to authoritarian rulers. The present administration of the USA disregards the nation's past role as a beacon of freedom, democracy and international cooperation. Uni students in Australia are spot on in recognising the nature of the current US government. Unless it changes its current course Australia should have as little to with it as possible.

david f,
The way I see the show evolving there is that in Trump, the Us got the first POTUS who stood up against the wastes that became the norm over the decades. He is also the first to be faced with the potential of a Broke America due to recent poor administration & even more incomptence fuelled by corrupt Bureaucracy.
He is the first with the sense to put his foot down to put a stop to the rorts & by doing so has put a real dent into the indoctrination tactics of the Progressives. That's why they dispise him so much & behave so dirty about him.
He's doing a right thing by telling the World & it's largest hanger-on, the UN, to do their own policing at their own expense for a change !
Morrison & Frydenberg are doing similarly here ! The hangers-on have caused way too much harm to the Nation, time to curb their doings !

Dear individual.

The way I see it Trump revels in corruption. He has appointed cabinet ministers which are creatures of the lobbies such as his minister of the interior. He has appointed De Vos who would destroy the US public school system in her diversion of funds to religious schools as Secretary of Education. He is a scoundrel exacerbating racial and religious tension. He has has troops tear gas peaceful protestors so he could have a photo opportunity holding a Bible. He has a history of corruption as a real estate developer. He has signed contracts with subcontractors and then offered part payment with the alternative of law suits.

The progressives stand for a freer and fairer America as against those who would preserve the legacy of the Confederate slavocracy that rose in rebellion against the US. He is against the progressives and for the regressives. He wants to keep the statues commemorating the slavocracy.

The UN is an attempt to create a world of law where nations discuss their differences rather than war against each other. It is not perfect and can certainly be made better. Rather than make it better he would destroy it.

King Midas turned everything he touched to gold, Trump turns everything he touches to something that doesn't smell very good. He stinks to high heaven.

I think we disagree profoundly.

david f,
I see what see & you see what you wan to see.
I admit that Trump would be better off letting others do the talking & do what he does best, get rid of deadwood on the road to economic recovery. The progressives are exactly the opposite ! They'd be better off letting others do the doing & just do what they're good at, talking !
Every time we have a Govt, the Opposition which got voted out because of under performance, suddenly knows how to efficiently run the Nation ! The proof is in the past several progressive Govts all over the World that managing is not their strong point, talking & disrupting is !
I cringe by listening to Trump but I shiver when I listen to the Democrats. The same happens in Australia now with a Conservative Govt & a Labor opposition. I still shudder to think what it'd be like right now with Shorten at the helm.
Morrison is doing a pretty good job thus far even though 50 % of his efforts are spent on sorting out years of Labor malfunction & ongoing sabotage by the Left in general !
