Australian media, defence have Trump Derangement Syndrome

Anthony Albanese’s trip to China this week is a very sharp change in the media?
The Prime Minister recently visited China in November 2023 and met with President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Qiang as part of the recovery of relations from Morrison during the Morrison period. The scope of the media was harsh and realistic: Temperature was “solving“However, Financial review; The trade exploded as China moved to end its tariffs in some Australian products. Australia reported. This was a risky journey, but Australia was coming from a power position, Australia He wrote somewhere else. And Nine’s resident Sinophobe, Peter Hartcher, mocked In the terrible persecution, journalists reported The agreements that end years of tensions, Xi’s Albanian swim and praised Albanian’s desire to continue diplomatic work.
Tenor has changed remarkable for this week’s trip. Although shifts, journalists and OP-ED writers, the stories are quite different. Albanian had not come to China earlier, Financial reviewThe whole trip was “thrown out of the route” Financial times The Trump administration explained that in the event of a war with China, Australia wanted to know what to do (the only person who took the course was the coalition that Angus Taylor had previously appointed Australia to defend Taiwan). Visit, other sales points acceptedIt was definitely happened “shady“By Aukus (unfortunate Daily mail “out of the rail” in its place).
Reliable Arch-Hawk Michael Shoebridge, AFR To write this “We allow Xi Jinping to armed our economy over and over“; Even Brendan Pearson – even the Council of Minerals gave him a fisk – fossil fuel advocate – worsened He said that China’s trade practices and Albanian’s behavior “cannot” call “(consumers in Australia only beg for higher prices for imported goods, ha Brendan?). News Corp, Prime Minister “stumbled“Over the military accumulation of China; Greg Sheridan Participated A parade Murdoch hirel And rifle Don’t line up to do Albania.
Why Change? Is it because China is now more aggressive? At the beginning of this year, he sent some ships to the circulation of Australia, and gave a little notification to Australia and New Zealand and exercised live fire in international waters. However, in 2021, China sent a warship to the economic region of Australia; Unlike the hysteria of the coalition in February, Prime Minister Scott Morrison actually actually protected The right of the Chinese to be there. Another Chinese ship emerged on the coast of Western Australia. 2022 Election Campaign.
Because of China’s military accumulation? In fact, this is only the United States Announced an increase of 13 % In a military budget, much larger than other countries. Is it because China still applies tariffs to Australian goods? The last of the Morrison period tariffs were removed in 2024, while the US, who now brings tariffs to the world and demands changes in the internal policies of the countries.
The really changing thing is how Donald Trump is more uncomfortable with the US for fans in Australia in Washington. This explains the majority of our defense and security institution, which is based as a key resource for guidance by our commercial media on geopolitical issues. Of course, not because it is not colored by other issues: News Corp’s brutal pro -US line, a US company and the fact that local sales points are activists for the US interests, while Malcolm Turnbull’a Derin Hate, such as Aukus from any comment from any commentary, even if it is a military question, even in a matter of a military interrogation, even in a matter of a military question, even in a matter of a military question.
However, our pro -American defense organization that determines what it creates Bien Pensant To think around Australia around the media. Unfortunately, Trump is busy deprived the entire image of the United States, which has been carefully prepared by his advocates for generations: democracy, stability, free markets and shared values.
Instead, Trump seems to be a hell to confirm every left-wing stereotype of the United States since the beginning of the Cold War-Maligna is an imperialist power that represents the power of instability of other countries and other countries abroad and their own people, not security, but representing the power of instability.
The deep fear caused by Mad King in this way, what America is really like, and how little differentiation from a long -flying country like China, will reject the Australian voters of Australia in the US army, and since the years of Gillard.
In this context, they tear China’s rise to economic sovereignty: they understand how important the Chinese economy is for the welfare of Australia, but they hurt for ways to restrict it and maintain American economic and technological priority.
China is a greater threat than ever, as the US is not very attractive, because the US is not very attractive, because the US is not very attractive than that of its perspective and who contributed shortly and who contributed shortly, because it has contributed shortly, and it is a greater threat than Trump, much less than leaning than China.
It is a thought that he had never had to think about from a part of the administrative class for 80 years, because the answer to each question was to postpone the United States. They allowed Australia to replace the vehicles that are the security, prosperity and sovereignty of Australia – an alliance with the United States.
Does Australia have to rethink the relationship with the US?
