#ClusterFuck #Albanese says he has invited #Trump to #australia

Also known as, how to guarantee a #MinorityGovernment #auspol

The prime minister revealed the invitation on ABC TV on Wednesday afternoon, as he was asked about his relationship with Trump.

Albanese said his government was “engaging through officials and through the representations that we’re making, strongly putting to speak to Donald Trump before the election”, following the US administration slapping tariffs on Australian goods as it has with many other countries.

Host Patricia Karvelas asked Albanese if he was reelected, would his first trip be to the United States, to which he said:

“I have discussed with the president going to the United States, and I expect that certainly will be very early on in the term…and I’ve also invited the president to Australia.”

“He didn’t come during his first term as president, but American presidents will always be welcome here, as are other international visitors.”

Albanese also noted that Australia is likely to host the Quad leaders meeting next year, which will see the heads of the US, Japan and India visit.
