Trump is Greatest Threat to World Peace : The Australia Institute Poll

[glockman]

The Australia Institute surveyed a nationally representative sample of 2,009 Australians about President Donald Trump, security and the US–Australian alliance.

The results show that:
• Three in 10 Australians (31%) think Donald Trump is the greatest threat to world peace, more than chose Vladimir Putin (27%) or Xi Jinping (27%).
• Most women (56%) feel less secure in Australia since the election of Donald Trump; only 13% of women feel more secure.
• More Australians prefer a more independent foreign policy than prefer a closer alliance with the United States (44% v 35%).
• Half of Australians (48%) are not at all confident that Donald Trump would defend Australia’s interests if Australia were threatened, compared to only 16% who are very confident that he would do so.
• Half of Australians (51%) think Donald Trump’s election is a bad thing for the world, twice as many as think it is a good thing (25%).

The majority of Americans must be extremely foolish to have voted for this imbecile, who also happens to be a felon. Those who went on YouTube to cry about how they voted for Trump, but still got fired from their govt jobs do not deserve any sympathy. What did they expect? For Trump to make massive job cuts from the public sector, but spare those who voted for him? These idiots deserve what they got for voting an idiot. Why are they saying that this wasn't supposed to happen? Is it only supposed to happen to those who voted for Kamala Harris?

World peace is an ideal. Something to aspire to, to strive for. Macham zero traffic accidents, zero plane crashes, zero unplanned pregnancies, etc.

Trump's indiscriminate tarrifs on everyone are crashing markets worldwide with no end in sight, but he says he himself is "ok with it". Damn CB kia, this Trump.

He naively thinks tarrifs = free money from other countries. But it's actually the Americans who pay the tarrifs out of their own pockets.


In his speech to Congress, Trump said, “Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again, and it’s happening and it will be happening rather quickly.”

The president then conceded there “will be a little disturbance, but we are okay with that,” and added: “It won’t be much.”

1. Individual votes are kept secrets. None needs not show whom they had freely elected for. It is only when votes are counted, & then some would out of displeasure, would CLAIMED they voted for the incumbent freely elected by the MAJORITY.


2. PrezTrump is a blunt straight talking American. He had in his election campaign spoken out truthfully that he would keep federal services small, so as to save taxpayers hard earned funds.


3. Majority of Federal workers on taxpayer fundings would know what is coming. It is only common that they would had voted for the opposition instead, & now, out of frustration, spoken out claiming they voted for PrezTrump, in the hope to slander & smear him, who only want to rationalize Federal workforce for better efficiency & productivity, as each dollar from taxpayers is precious & must be meaningfully spent.


4. Furthermore, ALL those Federal workers whom had been fired had been given 8mths salary as compensation. With such funds, they could easily turn to entrepreneurship, starting small individually, within the numerous supply chains, then expand when whatever they can innovatively supply meet market demands & CREATE more jobs for other Americans, & even Worldwide when the opportunity arises.

It would be a waste of talent when one has a brain, arms & legs, to NOT make full use of one's potential, more so educated Americans, to rely on Taxpayers hard earned funds to make a living doing little, WHEN there are more CRITICAL needs for funding in social expenditures for the needy - the homeless, medical aid healthcare, important & right wholesome education, repairs to infrastructure for better productivity, etc, etc.....


5. After years of seeing USA going down the drain under the past Administration by the opposition, Americans were NOT blind to see its effects & did the right thing - by the vote. It is only less than 100 days into PrezTrump policy.....only by stirring a glass of cloudy drink does one see what rises to the top....

Crashing markets?
You DO know how much the US markets have risen since he was reelected right? With most indices hitting all time high
If you must insist the markets are down it’s just a minor correction

I thought that President Trump’s tariffs have frightened investors. Fears of an economic downturn are driving a stock market sell-off that has wiped out $4 trillion from the S & P 500’s peak in Feb, when Wall Street was optimistic about Trump's agenda. New Trump policies have increased uncertainty for businesses, consumers and investors. The back-and-forth tariff moves against major trading partners like Canada, Mexico and China are causing markets to dip.

In a weird way, he's seen as naive to try to pander to putin. Weird because he's supposed to be this brilliant, deal-making, globally successful businessman. Naive because he actually believes putin will give him face and agree to the 30-day cease fire deal and the subsequent peace agreement. Putin is going to give him the middle finger by turning down/ignoring it. Trump can then suck thumb.
