The extreme political divide in the United States is unhealthy and damaging to its reputation, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has weighed in on political polarisation in the United States as the race for the White House heats up. When asked about how social media could impact elections, he told Cairns radio station 4CA on Friday: "The venom that's there is pretty extraordinary." "We see the polarisation in the United States is not healthy, and it is not something that is lifting up the United States' standing in the world," he said.
Nearly half of House Republicans come from Southern states, while nearly half of House Democrats are black, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander. By analysing policies and voting patterns, the Pew Research Centre argues Democrats have become slightly more progressive over time, whereas the Republicans are a lot more conservative. Former prime minister Kevin Rudd, now Australia's ambassador to the US, will need to forge a strong relationship with whoever is elected president.
