Donald Trump’s term as president of United States ended in disgrace. Judged only on character he would rank very low, but the assessment of any Chief Executive must be based on performance. After a lifetime in business he understood economic and financial issues and the vital importance of national security, but above all he understood the needs and concerns of middle America.

Hillary Clinton scorned them as “deplorables”, but Trump knew that the working class were “the salt of the earth”, the engine room of the American economy and the source of millions of jobs, so he delivered for them big-time.

Hon Richard Alston AO is a former politician and barrister who served in the Howard Government as Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts from 1996 to 2003.
