Donald Trump is significantly more unpopular than Xi Jinping, with almost half of Australians considering the US an equally big or bigger threat than China.

      Of course, but sinophobia and yellow peril narratives having been going strong in Aus for over a century.

      To be more unpopular than Xi with australians is a big deal.

      Yes, in Sinaloa, and Somalia, and Ghana and Kyoto. We have to ask Puerto Vallarta, they said yes. Hold on, I think my cousin and his two girlfriends. And his girlfriend’s twice removed baby sisters’s milk man’s wife’s cousin Gertrude. A lot of people. My neighbor’s dog and the squirrel from the tree in the back too.

      He’s pretty much completely fucked America’s reputation in the US, for anyone with a better than room temperature IQ at least.

    All he did was reveal US’ true face to the world.

    Let’s just hope that people won’t be fooled by land of the free propaganda the next time a democrat is elected.

    The US has always been a rougue state with complete disregard for the sovereignty of any other nation or the human rights of any other people. Trump at least is honest about the callousness of the US-led empire.

      Do you mean the posters in the window of the bar in Canberra? I don’t think you could call that an art show … also pretty sure the took them down based solely on the Netanyahu poster, because Israel sympathisers can’t handle the fact that they are the new nazis

    Nah mate. We are a nation with really small population and dont have a strong military so we need US at all cost. We really try to be like Americans and we try hard so nothing going to damage American reputation here in Australia.
