I don't understand it. If I was a politician right now, I would not, under any circumstances, hitch my political wagon to the shitshow that is going on in the US. But Dutton and that "Trumpet of Patriots" crowd - bless their 1950's White Australia hearts - are all for it.

Labor would be wise to stall the election for a month or two, just to let things unfold a bit more over there.
