If you have read The Australian recently, you would have discovered that ex-Prime Minister John Howard does not like Donald Trump.
Reading further (and smothering a laugh), Howard revealed that he never supported Trump and had little to say against Hillary Clinton.
In effect, Howard appeared to harbour a deep-seated jealousy toward the tall man’s popular support; something that is to be expected given Howard’s enduring political love affair with George W Bush after 9/11.
Jealousy is probably to be expected of a Prime Minister referred to by George W Bush as ‘my deputy sheriff’.
