SYDNEY (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump is looming large in the final weeks of Australia's general election campaign, spelling trouble for conservative opposition leader Peter Dutton just as a new poll shows Australians' faith in the United States at an all-time low.
A survey released on Wednesday by the Lowy Institute, a research foundation, found only 36% of Australians expressed any level of trust in the U.S. to act responsibly, down 20 points since the last survey in June 2024 and the lowest since the annual poll was launched two decades ago.
