elijah schaffer
What's up guys, this is Elijah with Slightly Offensive.
We're out here in the Gold Coast in Australia trying to find out what people think about Donald Trump.
Do their opinions change when they're in the southern hemisphere?
Let's find out how these constellations affect the mindset.
What do you think about him?
unidentified
He's a douchebag.
elijah schaffer
Why is he a douchebag?
unidentified
Because he's just a douchebag in everything that he does.
Like, what did he do specifically?
i don't know he doesn't care about any nature problems people problems and like which nature problems uh I think he's opening, like, he's taking some of the areas of the national parks to make spaces for like industries or something like that.
elijah schaffer
He never did that.
unidentified
He never did?
elijah schaffer
Never.
That's a lie.
unidentified
I don't like him.
kezia schaffer
Excuse me, what do you think about Donald Trump?
unidentified
He's a joke.
kezia schaffer
Why?
Why is he a joke?
unidentified
He's an idiot.
kezia schaffer
What's he done?
unidentified
He don't like the Mexican.
kezia schaffer
He doesn't like Mexicans.
unidentified
He wants to create a building?
A mudo?
A wall?
Yeah.
kezia schaffer
So because he wants to build a wall, it means he doesn't like Mexican people?
unidentified
Yeah, he's a lot of the time.
kezia schaffer
Yeah, his wife is an immigrant?
unidentified
Yeah.
kezia schaffer
Yeah.
Do you think that he hates his wife?
elijah schaffer
Yeah.
We're gonna see what people think.
What do they think?
unidentified
I don't know.
elijah schaffer
Great.
Hello, ladies.
Welcome to a show of Slightly Offensive.
What do you think about Donald Trump?
unidentified
No comment.
elijah schaffer
What do you think?
unidentified
No comment.
elijah schaffer
Do we gotta have some comment?
Where are you girls from?
unidentified
Sydney.
elijah schaffer
Sydney?
Where are you from?
unidentified
Sydney.
elijah schaffer
Okay, so like, when I say Donald Trump, what word comes to your head?
unidentified
Oh, no, Donald Trump, he's number one.
kezia schaffer
Why is he number one?
unidentified
I like his traits.
I like what he stands for.
The wall?
Why can't our Prime Minister do something like that?
kezia schaffer
Because we live on an island.
unidentified
Doesn't matter.
Stop the boats.
But he's just not a nice guy.
He's not like, I don't think his figure.
He's a president of the most important country in the world.
Like, not the important, but the most.
Thank you.
So I guess.
elijah schaffer
America's pretty cool.
kezia schaffer
Can you tell me what you think about Donald Trump?
unidentified
He's ugly.
kezia schaffer
Oh, that's not very nice.
unidentified
Don't like him.
kezia schaffer
Why not?
Why don't you like him?
elijah schaffer
Because he's ugly.
unidentified
I only like good-looking people.
elijah schaffer
But like, what is the number one word you would use to describe Donald Trump?
unidentified
Oh, dear.
Yeah, no, what is this for, actually?
elijah schaffer
YouTube.
unidentified
Ah, fantastic.
Alright, um, different.
That's a good word.
Different.
elijah schaffer
Is that positive or negative?
unidentified
It can be positive and it can be negative.
elijah schaffer
So he has good sides and bad sides?
unidentified
Yes.
elijah schaffer
What about you?
unidentified
Douchebag.
elijah schaffer
Why?
unidentified
Jesse.
elijah schaffer
I was trying to be.
unidentified
That's what you wanted to hear.
elijah schaffer
I don't want anything.
I just, I want love.
I want peace, but I wanted the truth.
kezia schaffer
I think he's a jerk.
Like, why is he in politics?
I don't know.
elijah schaffer
Like, why do you think?
Yeah, but like, who should be in politics?
unidentified
People who have studied it and who know about politics and know about the world.
elijah schaffer
So, like, pretty much most American politicians are just like previously lawyers and they've never really studied politics.
Like, So like one of the primary like actual influences of like politics in America is people study law or business and he happens to be one of the most influential businessmen in the world.
unidentified
That's granted.
He's great.
I mean he's a good businessman.
Yeah, don't know how his business is run but you know he's known to be you know someone who's good at business or someone who does well in business.
I would have sensed it.
As a politician though don't really know.
I think he's too radical.
kezia schaffer
In what ways?
unidentified
He's supposed to be a businessman, but he just doesn't seem to.
kezia schaffer
So he's brought back like heaps of jobs and things like that and the economy's booming at the moment.
Is his business not really on point at this point?
unidentified
I don't think he's as good as Obama.
kezia schaffer
How is Obama better?
unidentified
Obama bought in.
He took America out of their financial crisis ahead.
He created a lot of jobs.
He was quite a good president.
kezia schaffer
I think actually the jobs for black unemployment was at a record high during Obama and now within Trump it's at a record low.
What do you think about that?
Yeah, so it's unemployment for the black community is at a record low.
So more people of color, more blacks, are hired and have jobs than, yeah, but with Obama, more of them had no jobs.
Isn't that weird?
unidentified
It is.
Maybe it was the time.
elijah schaffer
Do you have to have to be nice to be a leader?
unidentified
I think so.
Not nice.
elijah schaffer
Like Obama was nice, but he was a terrible leader.
unidentified
No, it's not about being nice, it's about being respectful.
elijah schaffer
The question is though, Obama was really respectful, but he was literally like one of the worst presidents in history.
He got nothing done.
So it's like while Trump totally says things that I don't think any human would agree with, he's getting things done.
So do we want our leaders to be respectful or like actually get things done?
unidentified
Do we want our leaders to be respectful and get the things done?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, but like if you had an option, like let's say like, okay, I get Obama and like he kind of sucks, but like he doesn't get anything done, but he's like a cordial man who would like buy you champagne on the bar.
But at the same time, you go out and you're like, Trump's like gonna grab my daughter by the, but at the same time, he's like gonna fix the whole world.
What do you think about that?
unidentified
I don't know if he's gonna fix the whole world.
I just think you gotta find the middle, like, I don't think it's nice.
elijah schaffer
He brokered peace with North Korea and with Russia and like critics are like pretty like flabbergasted by that.
And they're like, what do we do?
And so like, it's kind of like, well, like, I mean, he did, like, I mean, they like set the world clock back like a couple hundred years.
They're like, you can't, he's gonna cause World War III.
And then he like stopped war with North Korea.
Did we give him any credit?
unidentified
Yeah, sure.
I'm not like the guy that, I'm not the girl that hates him.
I just think that the things he say, like I told you, the things he say, the way he say it, it's not right.
Like, he should say it more carefully.
elijah schaffer
Okay, so Donald Trump, good guy or bad guy?
unidentified
I mean, I'm gonna say he's a bad guy, but that's just from stuff I've heard.
elijah schaffer
Like, what have you heard?
unidentified
You're just an asshole, I guess.
elijah schaffer
Like, who said that?
unidentified
Um, majority of America, really?
elijah schaffer
Like, the majority of America TV stations or what?
unidentified
Just shit that I've seen online and stuff.
elijah schaffer
Like, what networks?
unidentified
Uh, like, Xbox for shoot, man.
elijah schaffer
Xbox is on top.
unidentified
Just wanted to let you know it's a beautiful day on surface.
kezia schaffer
What were you calling out to me earlier?
unidentified
Oh, I said around the f ⁇ ing.
kezia schaffer
Are you guys flirting?
unidentified
No.
Maybe it doesn't feel a bit cheeky flirting.
kezia schaffer
Can you guys please tell me what you think about Donald Trump?
Oh, I don't like him.
unidentified
Why?
I don't know.
I think he kind of ruins everything that Obama has put up in America.
kezia schaffer
What are some great things that Obama has put up that Trump has come and ruined?
The healthcare systems, for example.
Anything else?
unidentified
Ask him.
elijah schaffer
I'm just gonna move this bag real fast.
unidentified
I'm just here.
elijah schaffer
I'm coming.
I'm coming in.
Alright, so question is, what do you think about Donald Trump?
unidentified
I don't know.
elijah schaffer
Do you have an opinion?
unidentified
No.
elijah schaffer
Do you know who he is?
kezia schaffer
No.
elijah schaffer
Donald Trump's the president of the US.
unidentified
Donald Trump is, yeah, but anyways, have a good day.
elijah schaffer
Wait, why are you afraid?
unidentified
I don't like cameras, man.
Why?
I'm good.
elijah schaffer
Drugs.
Don't use drugs, kids.
Drugs ruin your brain.
It's gonna be bad.
Donald spoke meth.
unidentified
Yeah, he is a little bit too racist with his comments.
kezia schaffer
Racist?
What's something that he said that's racist?
unidentified
What hasn't he said that's not racist?
kezia schaffer
How are you today, my darling?
Maybe he said that something to his wife.
That's not very racist.
unidentified
For the other ladies he's been seeing.
kezia schaffer
But can you give me an example of one thing that he's said that's really racist?
unidentified
Not really, because I don't follow a lot of it.
kezia schaffer
You know he's a racist.
But you don't have evidence on that?
unidentified
No.
elijah schaffer
Like even Oprah, are you familiar with Oprah Winfrey?
She spoke very highly of him as well.
She actually interviewed him on a show and about 20 years ago he said he wanted to run for president and said he wanted to change America.
And his stance 20 years ago on a Sean Oprah is the exact same stance he had today, yet he was being praised 20 years ago and today he's being ostracized.
Do you think that's because he really has bad policies or is it because there's an agenda against him?
unidentified
I would have known.
I genuinely would have known.
I think it's because people don't think he's right for the job.
elijah schaffer
Like what would make him right?
unidentified
I have no idea.
I know nothing about politics.
elijah schaffer
But you do know he's a douche.
unidentified
I thought he was a douche.
elijah schaffer
But you know enough.
Like you did say he was a douche, so like if he's a douche, then he's a douche.
But like, but then like what could he do to undouche himself?
Like, cause I mean, if I'm a guy and you tell me like, dude, you're a douchebag, I'd be like, how can I undouche myself?
How can Donald Trump undouche himself?
Gotta give the guy credit.
I mean, as long as his policies are better than his tan, let's just ask ourselves, what can he do?
unidentified
I don't know.
I don't know anything about politics, to be honest.
Like, I feel like, yeah.
Lightning.
Get a new haircut.
kezia schaffer
I'm having a hot wife, but that's all I know.
Hey, hey, hey, Donald Trump, what do you think of Donald Trump?
unidentified
American Idiot by Green Day.
Cool, cool, cool, cool.
kezia schaffer
Do you like that song?
unidentified
Yes, I do.
kezia schaffer
So why is Donald Trump an American idiot?
unidentified
I don't know.
I don't really know much about him.
kezia schaffer
Okay, but do you think he's an idiot?
unidentified
Yeah, pretty much.
kezia schaffer
But you don't know anything about him?
unidentified
Yep.
kezia schaffer
But you think he's an idiot?
unidentified
Yes.
kezia schaffer
Do you think I'm an idiot?
unidentified
No.
kezia schaffer
Do you know anything about me?
unidentified
No.
kezia schaffer
If someone told you I was an idiot, would you believe them?
Yes.
So if someone that you didn't know said, this girl's an idiot, you'd go.
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah, pretty much.
Okay.
elijah schaffer
Let's see what Australians think.
What's up, girl?
So let me ask you a quick question.
What do you think about Donald Trump?
kezia schaffer
Not a great opinion.
elijah schaffer
So if you had to, like, articulate your opinion in a few more words, what would it be?
kezia schaffer
Too much fake time.
I can see you've got a few words, some anger built up about Donald Trump.
Let it out, honey.
Let it out.
unidentified
I really want to, but I can't.
kezia schaffer
Oh, fair, fair, fair, fair.
Can you tell me about some things that he's done that's racist or sexist?
unidentified
I've heard that he's, I don't know, something about Mexicans, but I'm just...
kezia schaffer
so Mexico borders the USA yeah something he's building a wall yeah Yeah.
And that's a racist thing to do?
Yeah.
How come it's racist?
unidentified
Isn't he not allowing Mexicans in or something like that?
I don't know.
kezia schaffer
No, you can come in.
You just can't come in illegally, like any country.
Any country, you can't just come in without a visa or whatever.
It has to be correct, right?
unidentified
Yeah.
kezia schaffer
But he loves immigrants.
His wife is an immigrant, you know, yeah?
unidentified
Really?
kezia schaffer
Yeah, Melania Trump.
She's not American.
unidentified
Oh, I didn't know that.
elijah schaffer
So Donald Trump was legally voted into office, so why would you say America is against him?
unidentified
I guess that's a hard one, really.
elijah schaffer
It's like hard, right?
Because you're like talking about like, well, the people voted him in, but then you're like, oh, God, but he's not like a supported.
unidentified
I mean, it's just like, it's choosing from two negatives, and I mean, one has to be the better choice.
elijah schaffer
Who's the other negative?
unidentified
Whoever was next.
Hillary?
Yeah, basically.
elijah schaffer
Would you rather add Hillary Clinton than Donald Trump?
unidentified
I don't know much about him, so I couldn't answer.
elijah schaffer
So do you know what Benghazi is?
unidentified
It's a place in the Middle East, isn't it?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, well, technically it's in North Africa and Libya.
So like basically Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama knew that one of our ambassadors from the United States was being murdered and they chose to stand down and then they lied on national television and said that the attack was started because of a video.
So they let Americans get murdered on foreign soil, then lied about it to the American people.
Don't you think that kind of looks a little bad on someone?
unidentified
I mean I guess so, but like lying like, hey, my family got murdered and I'm lying about it.
I mean it's not only my place to say because I'm not you know a part of it I guess.
elijah schaffer
So like if you're like are you Australian?
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
You're definitely Australian.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
Born and raised here.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
Okay so like do you trust your government?
unidentified
I don't trust anyone.
elijah schaffer
Okay so let me ask you this.
So if there was like Australians in their country like let's say Benghazi not Benghazi let's just say like a hypothetical place called Benghazi and then they were like murdered on the soil and your government could have stopped it but they didn't for political reasons would you be ticked?
unidentified
Probably yeah.
elijah schaffer
Would you want those people still in office?
unidentified
Hell no.
elijah schaffer
So wouldn't you probably vote for their opponent?
unidentified
Probably.
elijah schaffer
Which is kind of like how we got Donald Trump.
So then the question is then with Donald Trump, our economy is booming at a higher rate than it ever has in recent history.
We have unemployment rate at an all-time low for minorities.
I mean don't you think those are like kind of good things?
unidentified
Not really.
I mean why?
You can always do better.
elijah schaffer
But like better than good?
unidentified
Yeah, better than good.
elijah schaffer
That's like saying like okay think about this.
It's like well like what's better than a BMW?
Oh a Maserati.
Yeah but a BMW is still hella good.
unidentified
Yeah I see what you mean but like there's always negatives to positives I guess.
elijah schaffer
Right of course there is because like mathematics and whatnot but the question is then it's like how could we do better than we are doing now because like we've been in a pretty bad place for a long time and now we're doing amazing so like does Donald Trump get any credit for that or no?
unidentified
I mean I guess he I'm not like against him or anything but like I'm not gonna hold anything like if you know what I mean like I don't care about him or anything so I'm not gonna hold anything against him.
But like if he's doing a good job then good on him.
kezia schaffer
Boy boys.
Donald Trump in one word.
unidentified
I don't know it's like huh.
No no no okay what do you think about Donald Trump?
I don't know.
kezia schaffer
Any first thing that pops into it.
unidentified
Oh shit.
elijah schaffer
Mad dog I guess.
kezia schaffer
Mad dog.
That's two words.
I said one.
unidentified
Oh sick.
Sick?
kezia schaffer
Sick in a good or positive good way or a negative way?
unidentified
Good way.
kezia schaffer
Good way.
Tell me, tell me some things that you love about him.
unidentified
Oh I don't know.
kezia schaffer
Don't be shy.
Don't be shy.
unidentified
Doesn't care, I guess.
kezia schaffer
He doesn't care, so that makes him a sick guy.
unidentified
Yep.
kezia schaffer
Do you know, does your father not care so he makes him a sick guy as well?
elijah schaffer
He doesn't like him either.
unidentified
He doesn't like him.
I'm the only one who likes him.
kezia schaffer
Really?
Are you a bit of an outcast in the family because you like him?
unidentified
Yeah.
kezia schaffer
How does that make you feel?
unidentified
Normal.
I don't care.
elijah schaffer
How does the media portray Donald Trump?
unidentified
A bit of an idiot.
elijah schaffer
Like, which outlets specifically?
unidentified
Oh, all of them.
elijah schaffer
Like, which ones?
Because they're different around the world.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, all the ones always say in the UK.
I mean, it's just about what he's done, what he's said, anything that he's sort of any, whatever catastrophe he's caused or what he might cause is displayed.
I mean, they're not that biased, but it's kind of evident that he says something and then everyone's like, is this the right thing to do?
Has he done the right thing?
No one knows.
elijah schaffer
Have you ever said something you regret?
unidentified
Yes.
Like, how soon?
I don't know.
You do say it fairly often, though, I would say.
elijah schaffer
Right.
And would you be upset if people took the things you said that you regret and then, like, held you to them for the rest of your life?
unidentified
Yeah, probably.
elijah schaffer
So, like, would you say it's a fair enough if you're a person and you apologize for what you said?
Would that be fair enough to forgive someone?
unidentified
Yeah, I think so.
Have you explained yourself and you sort of said, you know, you sort of identified why everyone thought it was that way, but you actually meant something else?
Or if you're sorry that you offended people, then yeah.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, so like Donald Trump's biggest statements, which of course, I don't need to mention them because those of you that are watching, y'all know what that orange man said.
But the reality is that he actually has apologized and publicly spoken out against some of the things that people have placed against him as being misspoken or being misinterpreted or just regretting what he said entirely.
So do you think it's time for America to actually forgive Donald Trump and give him a chance at a new life?
Or is he just stuck where he's at?
unidentified
I don't know.
I mean, at the same time, you can't keep saying something and then just apologizing for it.
elijah schaffer
He's not keep.
He's like, he said a few things and then like apologized.
unidentified
Yeah.
I know what you mean.
Yeah, I guess so.
I mean, he is the president now, so I mean, you've got to embrace what he's doing.
But at the same time, if he was doing something that you don't agree with, you should speak out, too.
I mean, that's...
elijah schaffer
What is it that we disagree with?
unidentified
I'm not sure.
There's a variety of things.
I don't really know, though.
I think his link with the Russians and he has no link The Mueller investigation fell flat.
This is true.
Listen, I don't really know much about politics, I'll be honest.
elijah schaffer
Well, we know he's a douche, right?
