Our politicians are no match for the Americans and it’s in the taxpayer interest they avoid all contact.

Scomo went over, got given a slap up feed, a marching band and a medal from Trump and it’s cost Australia 850 million and counting in submarines we don’t even have being built yet.

Americans love our politicians, they are viewed as that sucker who’s born every minute.

Trump could sell the Sydney Harbour Bridge to Albo and he would buy it!

Good - Dutton will romp in if he copies Trump. Wink

Last poll I heard today Duddo is all ready the preferred pm?

IMO he needs not copy anyone. His doing a excellent job now.
Just put forward a plan to wind back this “ big Australia” by stealth that Albo has let free and bring immigration under control and that’s really all he needs to put up and his got mine and the majority the country vote.

I mean the cultural, values aspects and their more full-throated defence.

There will be a lot less timidity and polite accommodation of the passive aggressive pwogwessive bullying.

Trump's victory should extend the life of Western Culture a little further. Also it will put the brakes on the overreach of leftwing excesses. Trump is really only bringing the US back from the brink of the Democrat's "Error Catastrophe", one error after another which was moving the US light years away from the original intent of the Declaration of Independence

The Republicans before Trump are to blame as well, bring in the Patriot Act, and generally allowing the Deep State to run amok

The only way Trump will affect Lib/Lab Australia, is with trade, and foreign policy

Trump wants to deport millions immigrants who will more than likely not be accepted back into their native countries....Australia could be asked to take some of these immigrants as America took our inmmigrants during the Turnbull administration....Trump could demand Australia take refugees America does not want!!!

Quote:

Trump may deport hundreds of thousands of migrants whom Biden allowed to legally enter U.S.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has had a difficult time deporting migrants from China, as well as Nicaragua, Venezuela, Haiti and Cuba, because those countries often refuse to take back their nationals.

Two sources familiar with the incoming administration’s plans said the Trump administration may consider sending migrants to third countries if their home country refuses to accept them. Trump used a similar policy at the end of his first term when the U.S. deported migrants from third countries to Guatemala.

Quote:

Donald Trump and Malcolm Turnbull's phone call: The full transcript

Trump: Malcolm, why is this so important? I do not understand.

This is going to kill me. I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country. And now I am agreeing to take 2,000 people and I agree I can vet them, but that puts me in a bad position.

It makes me look so bad and I have only been here a week.

Turnbull: Let me explain. We know exactly who they are. They have been on Nauru or Manus for over three years and the only reason we cannot let them into Australia is because of our commitment to not allow people to come by boat. Otherwise we would have let them in. If they had arrived by airplane and with a tourist visa then they would be here.

corrected it for you.

Please tell us why America or Australia should accept illegals whose asylum claim has been rejected and who are not wanted by their own native countries either?
