  3. we went through this with china and america.. when is it that asutralia will learn… we need to expand our export base… so that physcopaths like tusk and frump will not be able to hold australia at ransom…

  6. Australian media love to scar Australians and beat up stories. If they make the past governments responsible for current government they can scare more Australians and get more attention.
    Make more money.
    Watch some international news. Get some real stories and the truth

  13. If Australia caves to trump, i will never ever call myself Australian again, all the world leaders are standing together, if we…once again suck up to America, i think Tasmania should become like the Sentinel island, and just keep people away. Every other country is going to suffer, but at least they'll do it with some pride. Especially if we get involved in this Gaza insanity, knowing full well it will create terrorist attacks. If we have anything they need, then we need to finally stand up and say No! No…we stand with our other brave proud countries, otherwise it will make me sick to say I'm Australian. We need balls. And self respect, not just you lot, all of us 😠😑🔥🌐🔥💔🥀.

  19. So he accuses australia of breaking promises.

    The fight he is having with mexico and canada right now is that he is guilty of breaking agreements, promises.  Trump breaking the nafta/usmca agreement between usa, mexico and canada.  The usmca agreement was the one he negotiated during his first term too

    This breaking of his own usmca agreement in trump 2.0 shows he is not trustworthy. It also shows he thinks he came out short and mexico and canada got a better deal.

    However the mexicans and canadians after usmca worked to improve their situations, but trump did not do likewise for usa.  This is why mexico and canada fared better.

    Mexico and canada were proactive after usmca

  22. Time that Australia sold more to America's rival interests, like those in China and even to Rocket Boy. If the latter makes his rockets using quality Australian steel, those rockets might actually land in America. With love from Australia.😂😂

  30. Australia is already suffering a trade deficit with US in 2024.

    Australia is suffering a trade deficit with US !
    Australia Exports to US (2024) = USD 16.7 billion
    Australia Imports from US (2024) = USD 34.6 billion
    Australia trade deficit with US (2024) = USD 17.9 billion <<<

  31. The world is taking unfair advantage of the United States, leading to a decline in its wealth. To address this, the US should consider implementing tariffs on imports. The country has abundant resources, including steel, aluminum, energy, and food.

    Triumph will produce everything domestically within the US. In just a few days, this could position the United States to become wealthier than other nations.
