Where does one begin with Trump’s latest insane attack against Australia?
Donald Trump blasts Malcolm Turnbull and President Obama’s refugee agreement: ‘It’s a dumb deal!’
Donald Trump has blasted a refugee agreement between Australia and the United States as a “dumb deal”.
The US President has pledged to study the deal, which he claimed would see America take “thousands of illegal immigrants” from Australia, despite repeated assurances from senior US officials he would honour the agreement.
“Do you believe it? The Obama Administration agreed to take thousands of illegal immigrants from Australia. Why? I will study this dumb deal!” he tweeted on Thursday afternoon.
Meanwhile, Australia’s prime minister said his country’s relationship with the United States remained “very strong” but refused to comment on a newspaper report on Thursday that an angry President Trump cut short their first telephone call as national leaders.
At the heart of the weekend conversation between Trump and Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was a deal struck with the Obama administration that would allow mostly Muslim refugees rejected by Australia to be resettled in the United States.
Turnbull declined to comment on reports in the Washington Post that Trump had described the agreement as “the worst deal ever” and accused Turnbull of seeking to export the “next Boston bombers.”
The Boston Bombers refer to Tamerlan and Dhozkar Tsarnaev, US citizens born in Kyrgyzstan, who set off two bombs at the 2013 Boston marathon, killing three and injuring more than 260 people.
Turnbull also would not say whether Trump had abruptly ended the expected hour-long conversation after 25 minutes as the Australian attempted to steer the conversation to other topics.
“It’s better that these things – these conversations – are conducted candidly, frankly, privately,” Turnbull told reporters.
…Trump hung up on him after abusing him?
It’s just another eery similarity to 1984 and the use of constant conflict and ever changing enemies…
…what’s most disgusting about all of this is two political leaders arguing over human beings who they have thrown aside like garbage.
What will happen when Trump realises that NZ is nuclear free? I think Donald Trump is preparing to invade Australia because of their Muslim suicide Kangaroos.
I don’t know if we are all going to survive this orange nazi’s first 100 days.
There’s probably a few trans-Tasman calls about now between the Yea/Nah Bling and ‘Malc’.
Oh Shit!
Things really are beginning to go tits up, and our great Public Service masters-of-the-universe will be working overtime ( INZ, Ternal Fears, Fawn Fears in Trade ) with their great analytical skills.
It’s a shame their self importance and inflated egos prevent them from seeing what we once would have considered ‘the bleeding obvious’
What can be done though other than to say ‘Pass the Popcorn’
Ha ! Orange Nazi. But don’t forget? Turnball is a close, snuggle bunny to yankee doodle psycho jonky-stien? Is the real reason why jonky fled, like the little coward he is, because The Orange Trumpenator was well on his way?
And let me write about Australia. ( Lets all hug right now? )
You’d have to wonder then why that arch fucker muldoon sold our farmers out to CER ? Our main export economy is agricultural and so is Australia and yet we, for example, started importing shit Aussie cars instead of USA and UK cars etc! Like we had done for generations I might add. Ever own an HQ Holden ? The very worst fucking car in the world. Uncomfortable, ugly, slow and thirsty but at least they were unreliable. If you got 1000 k out of one without a door handle falling off? You had a good one.
We shunned our traditional trading relationships with Eurpope, Britain and the US because some fuck like muldoon figured out how to make millions from con jobbing our Kiwi cockies. It’s a pity it’s pointless to dig Pig up and piss on his bones.
“New Zealand and Australia’s economic and trading relationship is recognised as one of the closest, broadest and mutually compatible in the world.”
Absolutely ! But for whom?? Not us poor average joe suckers, that’s for sure. Maby Watties? Perhaps Todd Group? What about Fisher and Paykel? Lets not forget Fletcher Challange and Wrightson NMA? Those scum bags made billions out of CER while we just had to go without.
Yes. Mutually compatible for whom? For our deviant pack of wannabe industrial fuckers who stole our stuff away from under our noses then packadged it up then flogged it off to the aussies for cheaper than we could buy that same shit here? The Apple and Pear marketing board made it ILLEGAL for orhcardists to sell export grade fruits to Kiwis via roadside stalls ! Our LPG ! Cheaper in Australia! Why the fuck is that? And why the fuck is no one talking about that?
Oh, I remember… Brawndo. Got electrolytes. Makes plants grow dumbasses.
Ha, ha, ha, potus is like a baby. Waking up from a chloraform induced sleep. I’m being serious. If trump carries on like this I think we could see Pence pull a coup with a small majority of caucus. May trumps rein be bloody and short. It’s speculation but when the Queen of England refuses any invitation from trump, somethings got to give, one word from her and we could see Pence pull the trigger
I think Obama might have passed Mr Trump the odd poisoned chalice.
D J S
Oh yeah, it’s always Obama’s fault.
Just like when the Nats screw up, it’s always the previous Labour government’s fault. Righties love blaming their predecessors.
Mr Sally
It probably isn’t Obama’s fault. He has probably never been able to do what he would have wanted to as president.
In the next few months we might get to see who really governs the United States, I don’t think it has been anyone who was elected for a long time, Trump is unlikely to prevail over the unelected powers but his failure is going to expose the impotence that the position really carries.
DJS
America may for some of us not be the “enemy” but it sure as hell isn’t a friend these days. And everything points to a worsening relationship with the rest of the world while this deranged monster represents these doughnuts. Please Mr English, just don’t even pick up the phone when he calls. It can wait.

Perhaps John Key saw headaches like this coming and decided to get out while the going was good
Yep EP bang on there mate.
Key the master “Yankee do dandy” only ever did anything to enrich himself and not anyone else for sure!!!!
So the hapless bullshitting Bill English is now saddled with this muck also, and will struggle with the muck come election time too!!!!!
Couldn’t happen to a more slimy character as he is also a traitor to us all and will follow his leader soon enough.
EP Mr Key was fast becoming a liability and we will never know the truth as to what other reasons were in play for him to cut and run in the middle of the night, he was becoming trapped and compromised by the dishonest and corrupt way he executed his office and Kiwis were slowly waking up to the deception.
Martyn you hit the nail on the head with these words “political leaders arguing over human beings they have thrown aside like garbage” that sums up this whole contemptible sideshow.
