I grew up in Brisbane. I took holidays in surfers paradise and Broadbeach. I went to dreamworld and wet ‘n’ wild as a child. My favourite place was “Infinity.” I went to schoolies there. It’s not a place for something like this. People say it’s not about politics but anything with Trump’s name on it makes it about politics. We are getting kicked out of America for not supporting Trump and yet you want us to endorse and support his buildings in Australia; in a tourist destination known for community and beautiful beaches. Australia shouldn’t be involved in anything that has his support.
As a veteran, I will not accept his narcissistic, misogynistic, terroristic, and utterly disgraceful behaviour on the land I signed the dotted line to defend. I served to protect this country, its people, and its values — not to see them disrespected, exploited, or dragged through the gutter by someone driven purely by ego and self-interest.
My service stood for integrity, duty, and respect. His conduct stands for none of those things.
Donald Trump is a thin-skinned malignant narcissist, and a grifter, he has been convicted of sexual assault and 34 counts of fraud. He sat and watched as his followers carried out an insurrection, in an attempt (as instructed) to overturn the 2020 election results. He is a wannabe 'king' and is currently consolidating his power by shutting down First Amendment rights and trying to use US military personnel as 'pawns' to quell dissent in (Blue) American cities. Several media outlets, universities, law firms, etc. have given in to Trump when threatened (some even paying him). The BBC must never do the same!
