ALP diplomatic faux pas
Jim Chalmers has moved to reassure domestic markets an isolationist US policy agenda under Donald Trump would have a minimal immediate impact on the Australian economy, but warned of potential longer-term impacts of a US tariff war with China.
He should be reassuring domestic markets that the adults, the LNP, will be in power next year and matters will then improve.
Jim also said Rudd was doing a good job. Really!
Before being appointed as ambassador, Rudd described Trump as “nuts”, a “traitor to the West” and “the most destructive president in history”.
Albanese no more diplomatic
“He (Trump) scares the sh*t out of me and I think it’s of some concern the leader of the free world thinks that you can conduct politics through 140 characters on Twitter overnight.”
Trump is entitled to put Australia on pause until we have the LNP back in power.
