Trump's policies impact Australian election, Labor Party leads.

Against the backdrop of Trump's unstable tariff and Pai Mall Barterforeign policies, Australia will hold a national election this Saturday. The latest polls indicate a rising possibility of victory for the center-left Labor Party and its leader Anthony Albanese, especially as the uncertainty of Trump's policies heightens voter anxiety.

On Monday, Albanese emphasized in his campaign, “The last thing you want to see is an unstable government.” This comment was clearly responding to the declining support for Liberal Party leader Peter Dutton. When Trump took office in January, the Liberal Party was leading in the polls, with voters mainly concerned about the cost of living and housing affordability. However, as the campaign progressed, the Labor Party gradually overtook the Liberals.

Andrew Carswell, a former press secretary for ex-Liberal Prime Minister Scott Morrison, stated that Trump’s policies acted like a “wrecking ball,” impacting not only Australia's conservative coalition but also having widespread negative effects globally.

The latest three surveys show a generally negative public attitude towards Trump, with some inside the Liberal Party revealing that anti-Trump sentiment is affecting Dutton's campaign, as voters are wary of potential risks. The direct impact on Australian pension funds from the U.S. stock market crash has been one of the immediate shocks felt by voters.

Although Trump is not the sole factor in Dutton's declining support, several political strategists believe Trump’s influence has undoubtedly increased voter unease. A dedicated poll on Trump's impact on this election shows that 68% of respondents think Trump is detrimental to Australia, and 35% of undecided voters stated they are less likely to support Dutton due to Trump.

Current opinion polls suggest the Labor Party is likely to triumph in the upcoming election, with Trump’s influence seemingly becoming a key factor in Australian voters’ decision-making process.
