Chapter 1: Why was Donald Trump kicked out of Australia?
Donald Trump has been kicked out of Australia. Let me repeat, Donald Trump has been kicked out of Australia. Donald Trump's hotel organization run by Eric Trump claimed they were going to be building a billion dollar skyscraper in Australia.
Over 91 stories, Eric Trump made an announcement about three months ago when now the business partner who was on the project said, we can't name this skyscraper after Donald Trump. It can't carry the Trump name. The Trump name is utterly toxic in Australia, and it's become more toxic as a result of Donald Trump's catastrophic war in Iran. Let's take a look at what went down, folks.
So Australia's first Trump Tower, it's been scrapped just three months after it was announced.
Chapter 2: What was the plan for Trump's skyscraper in Australia?
AI image was posted by Eric Trump. Look at this, look how big it is. The end of the day, the Trump family doesn't really develop these buildings. They slap their name on it and they take fees. We'll talk about the person who was supposedly going to be the builder, who still claims he's going to be building this thing, just not calling it Trump Tower anymore.
But the developer who the Trump organization worked with said, the Trump brand in this country has just become so toxic, to Australians. It's a 91-story project in the Gold Coast, and apparently it's still going to go ahead but not use the Trump name. I'm not quite sure if it's really going to still go ahead. I have some red flags in my own opinion, but...
let's not forget what eric trump posted a few months back posted a photo of what he claimed was going to be the tower he said take a look at this it's going to be huge it's going to be incredible but like all trump entities just complete and utter bs here's the story from the new york times as trump tower deal in australia falls apart a blame game begins the property developer says the war in iran and trump's unpopularity
contributed to the collapse of a plan for a 91 story on the gold coast so the developer's name is david young he's purportedly an australian property developer he announced this big venture on linkedin a few months back eric trump announced it as well look what we're doing in australia It was going to be this 91, 92-story tower. It's going to be in Queensland, in the Gold Coast area over there.
It would be the first Australian Trump International Hotel and Tower. And immediately after this was announced back in February, people of Australia started circulating petitions, protests started saying, get this Trump name out of Australia.
Of course, we remember last year during the Australian elections where the right-wing party, which in Australia is called the Liberal Party, which was previously surging ahead in the polls, led by Timu Maga, that guy named Dutton. He lost the election. He lost his own riding, his own basically the equivalent of a congressional seat as well. Labor won. Anthony Albanese won big.
real huge victory and he was running on standing up to donald trump and the us while you had the liberal party behaving as timu maga as it was uh being called here's how the trump organization is describing the fact that uh this trump tower ain't gonna be built
Quote, while we were very excited about the opportunity to bring a world-class development to the Gold Coast, the project was dependent on our licensing partner meeting certain obligations. And they go on to say, unfortunately, those obligations, which refer to financial commitments, were not fulfilled.
And then you had the individual who they chose to be their developer, this guy by the name of David Young. He blamed the Trump name as being toxic, to which the Trump family responded, no, he just defaulted on his obligations, so he's blaming us. And it appears this is going to devolve into more and more litigation.

Like everything with Donald Trump, it fails. This is how it's described in the New York Times article. Thousands rushed online to sign petitions seeking to block this Trump Tower project because of the Trump brand and what it represents. was what one of the petitions said, but there were multiple petitions circulating.
Donald Trump's popularity in Australia has plunged to its lowest level of his second term because of the Iran war, a poll from the Sydney Morning Herald found last month. Indeed, more people in Australia at this point seem to feel better about China than the United States, which is a big turn of events there in Australia.
And I'll remind you, back in October of 2025, there was a big protest for cutting ties with Donald Trump. You remember this. I'll show you a clip of what that protest looked like. Let's play it.

It's just fascinating when you look at the story of who the Trump Organization gets into business with. This guy, David Young, really didn't have a reputation of being a developer before. When you dig a little deeper, local media reported that the guy had two bankruptcy filings. when he was picked by the Trump Organization. I mean, does that shock you, the Trump Organization?
Donald Trump, rather, has gone bankrupt over and over and over again with his various entities and casinos, and Donald Trump has ruined so many businesses have been destroyed by Donald Trump. And so he picked a guy, I guess, who had two bankruptcies, like very little diligence. And apparently this guy, David Young, he reached out to Ivanka,
and he said hey you know let's do business and ivanka's like you want to meet eric and then eric's like uh hey let's do this thing i'll slot my name on it and young's like all right let's do it and then you know before you knew it eric you know was here's what eric posted just so you can see i'm so proud to announce what will soon be the tallest building in australia trump international hotel and tower gold coast this marks our first venture into australia and
extraordinary country in every respect and i couldn't be more excited to help shape its iconic skyline forever more to come just think if this is the level of diligence they're doing on this project i mean these people are so careless so reckless in every damn thing that they do
And you just notice also, did you notice that Eric made a similar announcement in Tbilisi in the country of Georgia where he said, look what we're building in Tbilisi. I mean, it basically looks like the identical kind of slop announcement. Here's what he just posted in Tbilisi. This was like. What, a few days back?
I'm so excited to share the official rendering of Trump Tower Tbilisi with a prime location in the heart of Tbilisi. This tower will quickly become a landmark as the tallest building in Georgia. You see, just like Operation Epic Fury,
