MALCOLM TURNBULL (GUEST): I've always believed the role of a national leader is to unite their nation, their country, their community, to bring people together. Now, what Trump does and what, and of course, Victor Orban, who he's also fascinated with, as you said, does the same thing in Hungary, what his goal is is to divide, take advantage of those divisions, and then use that to, you know, rile up his supporters, you know, so that he can get enough support to win. And, you know, this is supported by the right-wing media in America, particularly Fox News, what I call "angertainment" and, you know, it's doing unbelievable damage to your country.
